Ken Livingstone

I was glad to see Ken Livingstone and his PR team (we call it election team) get out and about in London yesterday. I think that Ken is caught between two difficult positions. On the one hand he knows that if he looked and sounded a little more independent he would win broader support on the other I am sure he understands that being seen with someone as unpopular as Ed Balls is not going to do him many favours. I do, however, understand that on balance he needs to be seen to be in with the Labour party 'elite'.. just don't over do it Ken! We want you to win!
