And, the municipal

are paid for by those who live and work in the metropolis.

However, Ken was so despicable with regard to meeting with terrorists,
and caustically anti-Semitic remarks, I could never support for him.

Indeed. Ken always likes to brag about he was the first uk politician to meet
with Sinn Fein before the peace process began. Of course what he always fails

negotiating about anything unless it was complete independence of NI, and even
if they did the leader of the GLC had no power to do anything about it anyway.
He was simply cynically playing to the marxist anti-establishment gallery.
