Lynne's Parliament and Haringey diary

The last meeting of the Assembly to question Mayor Livingstone before the Christmas break.

Of course, the key banter was about the new love in between the Mayor and Labour - and how Labour have changed their tune - overnight!

It was quite sick making. John Biggs (Labour's Transport lead) fed the Mayor a planted question about Simon Hughes's plans to make Oxford Street a pedestrian-friendly environment. And the Mayor savagely attacked Simon and the Lib Dems. It is quite clear from the vituperative nature of attacks that Ken Livingstone feels Simon Hughes is a real threat to his re-election.
