Meanie Mayor Pigeon Protest

Who he | 12.10.2000 14:21

Animal welfare activists forced the self styled Mayor of London, Ken Livingstone, to cancel a photo call in Trafalgar Sq today.

He was about to claim credit for his latest, inexplicably petty minded project, which involved the eradication of the pigeons. For some time he has been talking about regenerating the area ( nothing is 'scrapped' or 'demolished' any more in Blair's Britain), which most people assumed involved pedestrianization. But clearly he wishes to emulate his Dearest Leader, who in similar fashion, threw the resident cat in No. 10 out when it became ill, and its whereabouts after never established. As the bodies of dead pigeons already start to mount up in Trafalgar, we must ask if our Ken is actually now "beyond our ken" (trad expression for bizarre behaviour).
Can there be anyone who whilst visiting London as a child, didnt want to see and feed the residents ? I have a photo with several perched on my head, and so have most of you reading this, I'll bet.
Isnt this just another little bit of autonomous London being destroyed to make way for the New State ?
