So the Tory Trendy Nick Booth has met Ken Livingstone - bad luck, Ken! Crime, including violent crime, has reduced considerably since Booth's Tory party was in power 10 years ago, although you wouldn't think so reading the Tory press and this cockeyed article. Booth obviously is not in the least interested in the official crime statistics recently produced by the Metropolitan Police.
Booth twitters on with the old worn-out arguments about crime being less in the 1950s, which it wasn't, and it's all the fault of the teaching unions - enough said!
By this time I started to feel a bit sick with this Tory diatribe and then I read Booth is not going to vote for Ken - I couldn't believe it and fell off my chair crying!
