He's not a sell out. He is courageous and shrewd. But that does not stop
him being an opportunist.
If he wins, and it is more than likely, since he will get the largest first
preference votes, and will get the largest second preference votes from
everyone else, including the Conservative! then he will incorporate protest
votes once again into the New Labour machinery. They will make some
accommodation with him, and when his term expires, the party machinery will
reabsorb him.
And I should warn Charles that Livingstone supported military intervention
in Kosovo, though he did not support the intervention that occurred.
BTW how would you suggest he raises several billion to renovate the London
underground?
