I attempted to post the following comment under Boris Gilligan's recent opinion piece on why "wily" Ken is still outwitting his rivals.
"You sound a bit worried, Andrew. I'm not surprised. Not only is Boris failing to make up ground, it doesn't look as though he's going to. I wonder why that is. Could it partly be that many Londoners are reacting against the Standard's rather obsessive attacks on Livingstone and rallying round him accordingly? You never know, a bit more balanced coverage of the campaign might be more helpful to you in getting Boris elected. Food for thought?"
It hasn't appeared. Neither has any other comment, so perhaps there is some technical fault. I'm sure I can't imagine any other explanation.
The evening standard NEVER post anything that deviates from their blinkered, Mr Furious from Buckinghamshire, view of the world. I've tried.
Note how they will fail to publish a moderately left-of-centre point of view, but actively publish hysterically right-wing nonsense from some of their readers. Sums them up.
