Thread Name: BS: Livingstone booed at Trafalgar Square
Subject: BS: Livingstone booed at Trafalgar Square
When Mayor Livingstone tried to speak from the England Rugby team's Victory bus during the London celebration, he was booed by a substantial portion of the three-quarter of a million crowd. I wonder why they did this? Is it because Livingstone in prepaired to celebrate every ethnic group in London - apart from the English, whose capital, after all, this is? Perhaps the crowd remembered too well Mayor Livingstone's enthusiasim for St Patrick's Day and his churlish dismissal of St George's Day? Maybe I have got it totally wrong? It could be they just hated his whinney nasely tone or his holier-than-thou sanctimonious comments?

Does anyone have any view on this?
