At least Boris was sober and sensible
when he made his verbal attack; Ken was filmed often enough making
drunken outbursts that were hard to support (eg, anti-semitic).


Interested to hear your definition of the term "often"?


Remember these stories (OK, reported by the Daily Mail and ES)?

Good grief! A politician who drinks alcohol!

I note there is absolutely no mention of any anti-Semitism.

Neither is there mention of the repeated hounding and provocation of
Mr Livingstone by an employee or employees of Associated Newspapers.

Perhaps there should be a variant of Godwin's Law for whenever anyone
quotes the Daily Mail or Evening Standard on newsgroups?
