17. Twitter data 'predicts Boris Johnson victory' - Telegraph

Boris Johnson will claim victory over Ken Livingstone in the London mayoral election, according to analyses based on data from Google searches, Twitter and Facebook.The most recent opinion polls put Mr Johnson, who writes a column for The Daily Telegraph, four points ahead of his Labour rival, and the lead is seemingly reflected in online activity.Google Analytics, a service that helps digital advertisers track web trends, shows that last week there were almost five times more searches for “Boris Johnson” than for “Ken Livingstone” via google.co.uk. Britons looked up the Conservative candidate online 11,629 times, compared to 2,337 searches for Mr Livingstone.The digital marketing firm iProspect said search trends were also in Mr Johnson’s favour prior to his 2008 victory. Absolute numbers of searches from that time are not available, but Google shows that of the total for both candidates, 60 per cent were for “Boris Johnson”.

19. Labour MP Rupa Huq Israel comment amid Ken Livingstone's suspension over Hitler remark | Daily Mail

The row over anti-Semitism in Labour took a new twist last night after it emerged that one of Jeremy Corbyn’s MPs suggested a Labour Government could make a historical apology for the creation of Israel in 1948.In comments made last year to a meeting of the Palestinian Solidarity Campaign, Ealing MP Rupa Huq said that a Labour Government ‘could probably get that through’.Ms Huq’s comments, leaked to The Mail on Sunday, have been revealed as the Party is still reeling from the suspension of former London Mayor Ken Livingstone for arguing that Hitler was a Zionist.

The headline above tells the story.Labour Uncut's Atu Hatwal has highlighted it today. It was in yesterday's Guardian diary but seems to have got little traction.As Hatwal writes:"At the time the explanation given to reporters was that Ken was moved by the genuine words of Londoners and the responsibility he felt to win the election for them.Stirring stuff. Shame it was rubbish."

21. PMQs: When in trouble, blame Ken Livingstone The Tory Diary

I usually wonder before PMQs what Miliband will choose to go on. But there was no mystery earlier today this morning about what his choice would be: the budget "omnishambles".Cameron's response wasn't so much to throw up chaff - a frequent gambit when under pressure - as to chuck a bucket of ordure over Ken Livingstone and his tax affairs.As ever, the Whips were happy to help. George Freeman re-raised Livingstone's tax arrangements. Andrew Selous then re-raised them.If viewers remember one thing about this tax-concentrated PMQs session - charities, families, pasties, caravans and all - the Prime Minister wants it to be: Livingstone avoids his fair tax share.

22. Boris has visited London boroughs six times as often as Livingstone | Local Government

The attack message on Boris Johnson from the Ken Livingstone campaign is that Boris is "out of touch" and "lazy" that as a "part time Mayor" with his weekly column for the Daily Telegraph has hasn't had the time to do his main job.A rather different picture emerges from the facts. The Mayor reports to the London Assembly on their meetings and visits. The records for the number of visits to each borough are below.

By Jonathan Isaby Follow Jonathan on Twitter During Ed Miliband's Q&A on Twitter yesterday, one of my questions the Labour leader refused to answer was whether he was happy for Ken Livingstone's 2012 mayoral campaign "to be bankrolled by the militant, striking and disruptive RMT".

24. Labour's claim of TfL "surplus cash" is nonsense | Local Government

The Labour Party have been busy campaigning outside tube stations today with the message that the fares increase is wrong as Boris Johnson already "takes more in fares from you than he needs." Boris supporters have also been outside tube stations with a leaflet which backs the tube upgrades that are taking place as key for economic growth.Commuters are being told by the Ken Livingstone campaign that TfL "has amassed hundreds of millions of pounds of surplus cash." Really? It looks to me from TfL's last Annual Report that there is debt of £6.3 billion and an annual interest bill of £400 million.

25. Ken Livingstone is right: it's him or Boris Johnson. That's why I'm voting Boris –...

Ken Livingstone is right. When Jonathan Freedland announced he could no longer endorse Labour’s mayoral candidate because of his assertion that the Jewish community would not support him because of their wealth, Livingstone responded in a characteristically graceless but frank way. “Well, the simple, brutal fact that Jonathan’s got to face is Boris and myself are the two front runners. It’s no good saying you don’t want Boris, you don’t want me. Like everybody else he’s just got to make a choice.”While most political candidates try and attract voters, Ken Livingstone has, throughout this campaign, tried to bully potential supporters to the polling station. “Vote for me or else”, has been his unofficial campaign slogan. But, distasteful though this tactic may, there is no defying the logic. Next Friday one of two men will be elected mayor of London, and it will be either Boris Johnson or Ken Livingstone.Four years ago Ken’s campaign was lacklustre. This time it has been a disgrace. The hypocrisy and evasion over his tax affairs has become an embarrassment. His comments on the Jewish community would – had they been made by any other member of the Labour party, or against any other minority group – have resulted in immediate suspension and expulsion. As would his endorsement of independent Tower Hamlets mayoral candidate Lutfur Rahman.

26. Boris opens his books in tax row but Ken ‘tries to wriggle out of it’ - Mayor - News -...

Boris Johnson today opened his books in a bid to end the tax row overshadowing the race for London Mayor — while Labour rival Ken Livingstone tried to back out of a pledge to do the same.All the main mayoral candidates pledged on BBC2’s Newsnight last night to publish full details of their earnings. Tory Mr Johnson, Lib-Dem Brian Paddick and the Green Party’s Jenny Jones stuck to their word today.Mr Livingstone told the BBC’s flagship political show: “I’m happy to publish details of everything I’ve earned in the last four years.”But today he issued a statement saying he would only offer “full disclosure” if his rivals published their partners’ financial affairs — an offer they are unlikely to take up. He was immediately accused of trying to “wriggle out” of the deal.

Boris Johnson launched a foul-mouthed rant at a TV interviewer as the race to be London’s mayor reached its crucial final days.The Tory incumbent, who opened up a 12-point lead in a new poll, let rip on camera after a BBC journalist questioned him about his links to the Murdoch media empire.In a sign of the pressure he is under, Mr Johnson described the line of questioning as ‘f****** b*******’.He got a major boost last night when a Populus poll for the Times showed him opening up a sizeable lead over his Labour rival and former mayor Ken Livingstone after a week in which the contest had seemed on a knife-edge.

28. Labour attack Boris for Council Tax cut | Local Government

Today has seen a huge, perhaps critical, mistake by the Ken Livingstone campaign in their response to the decision of the Mayor of London Boris Johnson to cut the Council Tax precept by 1%. They have attacked it superficially on the grounds of its modesty:Labour's London Assembly budget spokesman, John Biggs, points out that Boris Johnson's decision to cut his share of the council tax will save the average Londoner 26p a month - enough to buy one onion.The Mayor today announced that he will cut City Hall's share of council tax by £3.10 a year - 26p a month, 6p a week, or less than a penny a day.On the same logic an earlier Labour press release made the point that a 1% rise would only cost 26p a month. We could all just cut back on the onions a bit and see our money go on reinstating a few Diversity Awareness Co-ordinators at City Hall.

29. As even the Telegraph turns against immigration rules, has the Home Office finally gone too far?

Breadth of opposition to spousal visa rules suggests this could be another Gurkhas moment.The income benchmark on spousal visas was always different to other anti-immigration rules. Whenever you mentioned it to someone – even if they were instinctively quite hostile to immigration – they always expressed outrage. Probably because it's an anti-immigration rule which specifically targets Brits. Now even the Telegraph is turning against it, four years after it was introduced.Today's copy rails against the 18,000 British families torn apart by the £18,600 annual income requirement for non-European spouses of British citizens. This is a policy which has forced married couples to live apart, prevented Brits from returning home once they've lived overseas and forced children to grow up without their mother or father.

30. Ed Miliband can pretend that Falkirk was just 'a few bad apples', or he can admit that Labour is...

This weekend Ed Miliband is fighting for control of his party. And at the moment, it’s a fight that isn’t going all that well.Miliband’s first big problem is that he has not yet been able to settle on – or get his shadow cabinet and ministers to agree on – a settled line on the scale of the crisis. This morning I was on the radio with Owen Smith, the shadow Welsh secretary, and his basic message was “nothing to see here, move along”. Falkirk, he claimed, was a one-off, perpetrated by a few rotten local apples. There were not really any wider issues, the whole thing was a storm being whipped up by a malign press, and it was time for everyone to calm down.The difficulty for Labour is that Owen Smith’s apples defence isn’t compatible with the strategy Ed Miliband and his team have slowly – some would say too slowly – been developing over the past 48 hours.

Yes, you did read that right. “Ed Miliband to explore historic break with trade unions.” That’s really what the Guardian headline says.But, below that headline, the truth of the story is a little murkier. Apparently, “Miliband has made no decisions on whether to break Labour’s links with the trade unions.” And the idea that he should seems to have emerged from the shadows rather than from the Labour leader’s office. One “former Cabinet minister” tells the paper that “we need to have a commission that looks at the union link”.
