$50, 30€ or £25 To Drive Into LondonMay 4th, 2008 - 23:01:58

The problem with Ken was that he did not realise how out of touch he was.

A one stage he said why do the poor need a car. Meaning they should be happy to take public transport - but with small children - this can be difficult.

Ken had children mostly in secret - he definitely was never spotted returning home with the shopping, two small children in hand - on a London bus or - on the back of his push bike.

Likely his baby-mothers took care of the realistic details of raising a child in London.


Ken is an example of the New or Champagne Socialist - highly paid and comfortably housed – as a Champagne Socialist – he could fund his fantasy – of acting like he is poor – when he is not [his drinks bill could attest to this]. But expecting others to go along with his frugal fantasy was another thing. He put financial penalties on owning nicer or larger cars – under the guise of congestion – so extreme were his measures – shops that had been in London for more than 100 years had to close their doors – as the cost of driving into London was prohibitive - and customers dried up.

Ken was extreme – but as a socialist his connection to radical Islam was another snag (being of the left i.e. Marxist and well pickled [hiccup] – he probably just didn't notice they were radical or that they called for the deaths of a few infidels).

There is a mega-mosque project proposal for London – fears were that Ken would okay it – just to secure the Islamic vote.

Here are some of the views expressed by leading members of this mega-mosque and the reasons given for building it:

- 'rescue the ummah [Muslim community] from the culture and civilisation of the Jews, the Christians and enemies of Islam,' suggesting it could help 'create such hatred for their ways as human beings have for urine and excreta.'

I think Ken would have been happy to join them - but - oh man - they don't allow alcohol.

Anyway we will certainly have one for Boris Johnson!
But it's on your bike - for Ken Livingstone!

Thank god the true patriots, the BNP have got a seat and a voice now, they will be the only one's who will hold them honest.

Good work BNP, you get my vote any day of the week.

Nicely said 'We'll see', however don't forget that muslimes are a limited problem. You should not allow groups like the BNP (I understand their anger) to destroy the British way, we don't want nazi's, remember those little wars last C?
Better to demand action in your local communities from the leading parties by people power (you got em way out numbered) than to waste your time with the BNP. You peeps seem to forget that just like Red Ken your local politicians are whores who will do what you say if you get enough voices to threaten their privaliged positions
