The quote I left out from that piece I linked to in that last post was:

"The only dissenting boos - and even they seemed good-natured - were reserved for the Mayor, Ken Livingstone, as he bestowed the Freedom of the City of London on the England team."

Actually it wasn't "the Freedom of the City of London" - that woudl have needed the Lord Mayor of the City of London, which is a tiny area in the middle of London. Ken was talking about the Freedom of London, which is a very much larger area.
