COMMENT & LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
 
A rant that was blind to Ken’s achievements

MARTIN Bright, political editor of the New Statesman, went hunting for Ken Livingstone on Monday night with his documentary on Channel 4. He threw allegations at him from all directions – he was a supporter of an anti-semitic, homophobic, misogynistic Muslim preacher, Yusuf al-Qaradawi, a disciple of the Venezuelan “dictator” Hugo Chavez, he was guilty of cronyism and had surrounded himself with political buddies from a far left fringe group from the 1970s. Bright went further in the Evening Standard. Don’t vote for Ken, he urged readers.
