Mission impossible

Is it possible to shame Ken Livingstone? I would have thought not. Trying it makes as much sense as pretending that the state of Israel can do no wrong and Mr. Livingstone & his allies can’t criticize the conduct of Israel’s government as an absolute ban, irrespective of whether their complaints have merit.
    It is also impossible to take newspaper whinges from the likes of Margaret Hodge seriously if you know her shameful history in local government.
