flicked over the LBC today to have a listen to those nasal
tones of Ken Livingstoned.

I heard that Boris found 39 bottles of fine wine and 49 bottles of nasal decongestant in Ken's old mayoral office.

The decision to put Ken on LBC is of course that of Jonathan Richards, and is among many of the bad ideas he has had since taking up the position.

Ken is sounding terrible even though he has done programmes (jointly with others) on LBC before. He does not have a radio voice, and is a has-been now with no political power which makes him much less interesting to talk to. Yeah, we could call up and have a shout-up with him but that would make his show seem more interesting and I think folks can't be bothered.
