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...

Livingstone shows lack of Knowledge for "Black" London "Black Cab " Trainin
2007-10-15 09:02:00 Yesterday I read that Ken Livingstone has created an ethnic assistance program for minority trainees for the London Black Cab taxi test, otherwise known as The Knowledge. And it has already received a storm of controversy. The Knowledge is about the three year study program that tests a knowledge of all London streets, in addition to general management and service knowledge, as well as overall skills relating to the vehicle.There is a mis-match between the the population average of black and ethnic minorities (BME) living in London, which is 30 percent on average, but in some boroughs even much higher, and the average of BME inside the cab trade.The London Development Agency, LDA, which is an authority Livingstone is directly responsible for, has decided to offer ethnic minority people special help, such as a free motorbike, which is needed to drive around London to learn the streets, language skills and other assistance and courses. Some have nicknamed this program the Ethnic K...

Help the Livingstone Performing Arts Foundation [Aetiology]
2007-07-06 16:15:00 Every time you love just a little Take one step closer, solving a riddle It echoes all over the world Every time you opt in to kindness Make one connection, used to divide us It echoes all over the world –Dar Williams, Echoes I write about African countries with some regularity on here. The continent is, of course, one of the central areas for so many infectious diseases, including the big three (HIV/AIDS, malaria, and tuberculosis). Sometimes I document the science; other times I’ll write about what is being done to help (for example, these clever designs, or money raising events. Over at Genomicron, though, T. Ryan Gregory notes a much more personal connection to assistance in Africa: his parents are moving to Zambia to aid the town of Livingstone, just a few miles from Victoria Falls. His parents are spearheading this by themselves, and working tirelessly to raise funds and awareness–and this is where we come in. Gregory notes that there are many ways to ...
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...
Livingstone, Zambia and Victoria Falls
2007-04-12 00:00:00 Livingstone, Zambia is home to the Victoria Falls and a starting point for many in Africa. I had the privilege of going there in July of 2006 to kick off my Africa Trip of 2006 Getting There I flew in to Livingstone on a flight from Johannesburg, South Africa. The flight was reasonable (around $140CA with South African Airways booked on Expedia). It is a stopping point for many tours though. If you were interested in doing on of the "overland" tours from South Africa up or from Kenya down, you will end up here most likely. The "overland" grou.... - 0 Comments
London says goodbye Ken Livingstone
By John GardnerLondon h
2007-01-16 15:00:01 London says goodbye Ken Livingstone By John GardnerLondon has not tearfully bid farewell to the final journey of Ken Livingstone who died yesterday , His last dying wish was,made before the last election ? that he would keep the popular Routemaster buses in service. have now gone.Mr Livingstone, who once said that only a "ghastly, dehumanised moron" would banish the iconic vehicles from the nation's capital, showed what a ghastly, dehumanised moron he was by banishing the iconic vehicles from the nation's capital.Six Londoners lined the streets to wave good-bye to the Moronic mayor of London, still smarting from the Mayor's other recent u-turn. Londoner Athur Trubshaw reminisced: "I remember when we said goodbye to the promise to freeze transport fares for four years ? do you remember? The promise came before the election. Then just after, all the fares went up. Again."Campaigners had been hoping to save Ken's promises, but their pleas fell on deaf ears....
