Red Ken's Speech to Labour Red Army

Another very late Labour Party conference report. Mayor of London, Ken Livingstone’s speech on Wednesday.

Good solid speech. Who would believe the photo to the left a few years ago (no pun intended). He really enjoyed sticking the knife into his Tory Challenger, Boris Johnson. I must admit that while out jogging before conference I listened to Boris being interviewed on the "Today Programme" and was very surprised just how poorly be came over. Surprised, but pleased of course!

I liked Ken's "quip" that unless the City of London Corporation “volunteers” to contribute more money to the London Crossrail scheme then he should be given powers by Government to take the money off them!

So he asked - which would they prefer???

Once again, he become really quite emotional at the end of the speech.
