Resistance is Phutile

Livingstone: part 5.

In my previous blog I was beginning to have what looked like a mini-series of Ken Livingstone features. I hadn't actually intended on continuing with the Ken-bashing but the man really is too much.

Over on http://www.samizdata.net I just read that the cost of staging the Olympics is set to double. No surprise actually, we all knew it would happen.

But read this:

The city's mayor, Ken Livingstone, assured Tony Blair and Gordon Brown that any overruns would be met by Londoners.

Yeah, I was beginning to think we could do with a huge increase in council tax too. Apparently the new estimates would equate to a £1000 increase per household, which I find unbelievable, frankly.
