Maybe it's Because he's a Londoner

I'm often asked about the cost of Livingstone's propaganda sheet, The Londoner. Here's the answer:

Roger Evans: What is the current annual cost of The Londoner?

Ken Livingstone: The 2006/07 Londoner budget totals £2.8 million. The cost is equivalent to 10p per copy per household.

So that's £1.20 per year, per household of course, and the Mayor thinks it is good value.

And its purpose? Alot of money for what exactly? I'm sure there are a lot better things the money could be spent on!

The purpose is to tell us how wonderful he is. What better use us there for our money.

Apart from a party celebrating the anniversary of a Labour politician "coming out", of course.
