Boris Johnson must beat Ken Livingstone on May 1st.
2008-04-27 16:29:00 With only three days to go until the election for the next Mayor of London, the polls are showing Boris and Ken on level pegging. Having been (until recently) a life long Labour supporter, I can say with all honesty that I cannot understand how Ken Livingstone became Mayor, or continued to get elected. He always reminds me of an evil villain from a Bond movie, or the corrupt official at odds with Batman. When do you ever hear anything good said about Red Kenneth in the media? how often has his name been linked to the dubious activities of others? Why the hell do people vote for him? it's beyond me. Maybe he has a massive family.I'm reasonably sure that Boris will come out on top - the main reason being that I believe there are now more people who want to stop Ken winning than there are wanting to bash Boris. Boris has been at a disadvantage in these latter stages due to his less than polished public speaking ability. It's a shame he can't articulate the message he writes so eloq...

Equal Opportunities Commission to check London Mayor Ken Livingstone's deci
2007-06-22 17:33:00 The Equal Opportunities Commission said it would investigate a decision by the Mayor of London, Ken Livingstone to reject the appointment of eight men and a single white female to the London Fire Authority because it failed to tackle the under-representation of women and black, Asian and ethnic minority Londoners. Livingstone asked Liberal Democrats and Conservatives from London councils and the London Assembly to reconsider their nominations to the London Fire and Emergency Planning Authority. The Mayor insisted that he received legal advice stating that there were strong grounds for concern about whether statutory duties to promote equality had been carried out by the councils. ?I just do not believe that it is impossible to find more black and Asian people to serve on the fire authority, or that there are not more women who wish to participate,? he said. ?It is unacceptable that when there are 1,861 councillors in London, of whom 555 are women and 293 from black, Asian...
