Iain Dale hyped up the interview with the historian who wasn't named until the time of the interview, which was over half an hour after it was announced. The interview seemed to be very short.

There are a few who do other work outside LBC and never heard any of them taking it to the extreme as Ken Livingstone has done. I expect with his views LBC contract will be terminated. It's not the first time his mouth has got the better of him. I'm sure Global
will be reviewing this and David Mellor will have a view on his Saturday show. He needs to be sacked immediately. |

You may be premature thinking that. Have you not heard the racist/xenophobic bile that comes out of the mouths of other male and female LBC presenters?? I count around 5 anti Muslim and one anti Israel....on the station...
Get over yourself. |

How does that work?...Newsnight was presented for many years by Paxman, who is a self confessed Tory supporter. You seriously believe that he would have been happy to put a lefty slant on everything he presented? And being anti-Ukip doesn't automatically imply you must be a raving leftie either.

Lately it would seem Global have employed a few controversial characters i.e. Katie Hopkins, Nigel Farage and George Galloway but Ken has gone way past controversial and onto out right racist.
He needs to be sacked immediately. He just doesn't engage his brain before opening his mouth on this subject. In addition, Corbyn should have spoke up much earlier about his vile comments. The fact that Sadiq Khan condemned him hours before his suspension speaks volumes of where Corbyn's allegiance really lies. Bleak days ahead for Labour. |

BiB. Today J O'B immortalized yet again his cliché, "Shut the door". Do you think he's watching Larry Grayson's DVD's?
FGS why doesn't his producer ask him to 'change the record'? |

Get over yourself. Now NF is telling us the Police can only police us is we allow them to, if we rise up....the guy is a prize plum at times, banging on about press freedom (He used to be the Sun Bizarre Showbiz columnist you see so he was a "journalist") |

It is strange the Labour Party were criticised for not suspending KL more swiftly.......
LBC yet to comment on Livingstone's future.....maybe we need the Dail Mail to exert their usual pressure...... |

Ken has been kicked out of the Labour Party over his offensive remarks over Jews. I'm sure he will be kicked out of LBC now
I note that presenters have not been referring to KL as their colleague, since yesterday.... Well, apart from JO'B, just now - but only as the means of disparaging KH !!! Why didn't Ken stick to his gardening, child-care & media career. He just can't help himself !! He is, absolutely, determined to carry on with his politics. Does he not realise that he is an embarrassment to his, 'best friend' Jeremy...... Nowt but trouble on the LBC news. Enjoy your Friday, everyone x |

Livingstone says no more on Hitler until his radio show. Is LBC entirely comfortable paying him as a presenter after what he said yesterday? |

Yesterday, I heard both Shelagh and Ian Collins mention about Ken being on air at 10am tomorrow (Saturday). Although Shelagh did hesitate as presumably her producer told her that he wasn't presenting the programme! JO'B this morning said that Michael Crick was co-presenting while we are in this purdah period. |

If Ken is a phone-in 'guest' do LBC pay him?

A Tweet from George Galloway ....
'Btw where are all the "Je suis Charlie" brigade when it comes to Ken Livingstone right to "freedom of speech"? ' At least he's TalkRadio's problem these days. |

Check out LBC website the reporters were at Ken L doorstep trying to get some comments. All he said his next interview will be on his Saturday show ( Tomorrow) with David. So he's suspended by the Labour Party and now return to LBC to voice his o

Obviously rather missing the point that nobody tried to stop livingstone saying it in the frst place by massacring him and his colleagues. Freedom of speech doesn't mean freedom from all consequences.
George Galloway's thought processes are nearly as mixed up as Kens ...

Talk of free speech is a bit rich coming from somebody who has a reputation on Twitter for blocking anybody who doesn't come across as a grovelling sycophant.
