Apparently in last nights London Evening Standard Ken's back on the
moronic scale yet again. Maybe he feels he can garner a view votes in the
future from the Snow rampers? Why not? he ingratiates himself with every
other tin pot minority group.

Of course Ken sneezes and the media gets chicken flu. This Ken hyped up
diversionary scare story about Londoners being prepared for a 63 type
winter-what lies and tosh!. Yet ITN and the Londson Evening Standard (wot
standard) happily endorsed the well known L.L.L.R.F (looney left long
range forecaster)

The violent crime rate in London is atrocious, the last figures I
saw -taking into account the the police are reluctant to reveal the real
statistics for political reasons -were showing one gang rape per week, at
least several killings a week topped up with plenty of stabbings,
muggings and vandalism at an unprecedented levels.

No wonder ken wants to summon up as many diversions as he can, on this
occassion it's the bogeyman of severe winter weather. Mind you it'll be
the first time ever if he mentions pensioners.
No, too me it's quite clear. Ken hankers after a Winter of colds, flu and
blocked noses. Why, then he can bring in a Winter congestion charge!


As you live in London (at least thats the impression I get as you
obviously hate the place sooooo much) why don't you buy the lack of
Standards and read the article for yourself, the fact is all Ken was doing
was repeating information from the MO, I suspect no I'm certain that the
press have whipped up the story, if it means that 1 extra person is
prepared then fantastic, but please don't moan if you land up walking home
in a blizzard when the tube is FUBAR, the overhead trains busses and Taxis
similarly.



Believe me when I get the opporunity I will be out of London like a shot .

Prepared for what for christsakes? Ken is an idiot. I've tried to locate the
article on the Evening standard web site just to see if he's angle can be
identified.

Sorry all, I know this is off topic . I'll self shut it for now.
