The former Mayor of London, “Red” Ken Livingstone, has found a new gig—guest hosting for George Galloway on Iran’s Holocaust-denying Press TV: Ken Livingstone Is Working For the Islamic Republic of Iran Propaganda Station.

I wonder if Red Ken knows what happened to the Reds in Iran who helped the Islamists toss the Shah?
Evidently not.

Oh.
Is there any way the British can send him to Iran? And leave him there?

In reversal, U.S. to join U.N. rights council
The United States will seek to join the U.N. Human Rights Council, reversing the U.S. policy of shunning the group.
On Tuesday, the Obama administration announced it would participate in May elections for a seat on the 47-member council, prompting concern among some Jewish groups. The Bush administration had withheld U.S. membership from the Geneva-based council for its failure to confront human rights abusers and its singling out of Israel for condemnation.

Couldn’t quite listen to all of it, But apparently the Arab world would be better off if some one would just be allowed to unite them. Maybe England would be better off if Europe was allowed to unite? Say in 1942?
What a buffoon.

Yes. Congestion pricing which in principle sounds good.
Of course, global economical melt downs of the leftist sort ALSO cut down on traffic in the City.

Can’t help but notice that the screen capture has the chyron “NY Times, Washington Post to cull staff”
Espousing the views of Red Ken is one of the reasons WHY they are culling staff.

The sickest part is that if you draw Mo with a bagel on his head, millions of muslims around the world will suddenly go into a shit fit frenzy overturning cars, breaking windows, burning flags. But the anti-semitic drawings shown in the video are okee dokee…muslims just doing the Jihadi hokee pokee.

I remember being appalled at how even some conservative pundits were applauding Red Ken’s supposedly “Churchillian” words following the 7/7 London Transit atrocities. They didn’t seem to realize that his words were Churchillian, alright… Ward Churchillian. He basically said that the terrorists had mistargeted by not killing rich people.
So color me less than surprised by his latest career move.
Open treason receives no punishment in the West these days.

It is hard to understand how someone can, with a straight face, accuse reality of being exactly the opposite of reality.
It takes no courage to criticize Israel as is laughably suggested. On the other hand it will take great courage to stand up for Israel’s right to exist by any politician.

Red “Lord Haw Haw” Ken, must be his new nick. It’s interesting how sociopaths so easily throw off one cloak and put on another. Their real persona is just malice and self-aggrandizement. Their cloaking cause is whatever cause best fits and serves that personal agenda at any given moment.
One day Atheistic Communism. The next, Islamic Fundamentalism. Whatever.

And he’s subbing for George Galloway? It’s hard to say who’s crazier, him, Gorgeous George, or Dinnerjacket.
(I couldn’t watch after the “cartoons”. Ugh.)
Some people should stay off TV on general principles. I’m one. Red Ken is definitely another.
/I break camera lenses- he can put the audience in the psych ward, pleading for him to stop with the bad Michael Palin impression.

We have more Lord Haw Haws than we know what to do with. Unbelievable.
The Brits hanged Lord Haw Haw. Like all executed prisoners, he was buried in un-consecrated ground.
Joyce was executed on 3 January 1946, at Wandsworth Prison, aged 39. He was the second-to-last person to be hanged for a crime other than murder in the United Kingdom. (The last was Theodore Schurch, who was executed for treachery the following day at Pentonville. In both cases, the hangman was Albert Pierrepoint.)

Who cares for what this idiot says or do? Londoners were just sick of him and kick him out. The man still didn’t get that well - what always happen with Marxists in power. They think they are the people, and they don’t like to find out that people elected the other guy… who is a conservative. That was a blow to him.
Thinking straight, why don’t the mullahs keep him? At least, Tehran would be a better city…. because even him can run better a city than the mullahs.

I just can’t believe this person rose to the position of Mayor of London! He sells the anti Jew message as strongly as the Sham Wow pitch man, over and over and over with this garbage.
I would never hurt anyone, but if I were given six weeks to live, he’d be on my shit list for at least a fecal matter pie in the face.
