1905 Hrs GMT 2005 Hrs UK Time London Wednesday 23 April 2008: Khoodeelaar! No to “Big Business agenda Crossrail hole plot-peddlar Ken Lyingstill Livingstone” CAMPAIGN TOLD YOU SO! He brazenly admits, you can’t believe a word Ken Livingstone says! Just as Gordon Brown’s poll ratings slump, so does Ken Livingstone’s conniving ‘confidence’ in taunting the entire ‘Blaired’ party [that sued to be called and known as ‘The Labour party’]. Livingstone dismisses even the former Labour party and declares himself unbeatable….Just part of the Khoodeelaar Manifesto update and just to put this on the record, Khoodeelaar! is saying again, that Ken Lyingstill Livingstone never ever had any regard for democracy or accountability… It is a measure of the corruption that is so prevalent within so-called [other] main ‘Opposition, opposition’ parties that the liar Livingstone has got no compunction is defying the rules, misusing his office and in being still confident of being able to get away with being so unashamedly contemptuous of democracy for so long. And this is why Livingstone is still so brazen that he can still get back in as a ‘mayor’ in the name of London for the a third term term and get away with defying all norms, standards of accountability……common sense, democracy and basic decency…!!!! [To be continued]

Ken Livingstone distanced himself from the Government today by declaring that he was still an “independent” candidate for Mayor.
Speaking at the launch of his bus manifesto, Mr Livingstone was asked whether Labour’s poor polling nationally was undermining his re-election bid.
“It doesn’t matter what party label I wear, I’ve always been an independent,” he said. “When I came back into the Labour Party, the deal I did with Tony Blair was ‘you give me the money and I will spend it in a way that I think is right for London – without the Government telling me how to do it’.”
Mr Livingstone added that even when he was a Labour MP, the party’s whips in Parliament knew that he would operate differently from the party line.
With Labour on about 28 per cent nationally in some polls, the Mayor’s rating of 37 per cent is seen by his allies as evidence that he can outperform the party by keeping his distance.
Several Cabinet ministers have campaigned with Mr Livingstone in recent days, but some in his camp believe that the Government’s performance is holding him back. Mr Livingstone won the mayoralty in 2000 as an independent but was brought back into the fold ahead of his re-election in 2004.
He unveiled his bus manifesto with a fresh attack on Boris Johnson’s “farcical” plans to dump bendy buses. Mr Livingstone said the choice between his policies and those of his Tory rival was one of the starkest facing voters on 1 May. He said that the increase in bus use to six million journeys a day was one of his biggest successes. Mr Livingstone added that over the past eight years the total had gone up by almost two million journeys a day.
The manifesto sets out plans for “London’s second bus transformation” by making them easier to use and greener.
Key pledges are:
• To increase services and improve reliability.
• Introduce accurate second-by-second GPS bus journey information, both on buses and at bus-stops.
• Investing in a new fleet of clean, green hybrid buses.
• Improving driving standards and vehicle cleanliness.
• Holding down fares.
Mr Livingstone said his policies “compare starkly with the chaos and uncosted incompetence of Boris Johnson’s flagship policy of introducing “replacement Routemasters with conductors”.
