(IsraelNN.com) Boris Johnson defeated Ken Livingstone, who was running for a third term of mayor and won wide support from the city's growing Muslim community. Johnson, a member of the Conservative party, was backed by 53.2 percent of the voters. Livingstone frequently has collided with Jewish community in London, previously accused Israel of "ethnic cleansing" and once refused to apologize for comparing a Jewish reporter with a Nazi concentration camp guard.
Johnson has been more favorable towards Israel and opposed last year's movement by academics to boycott the Jewish state
At least it show someone over there has a backbone!!
There’s hope for England yet.
The world slowly wakes up while the American left is comatose to terrorism.
Wait, wait...
Red Ken was DEFEATED? I can’t believe I missed this. I thought I saw a few pigs fly past my window the other day.
Rumor has it, that it was just one of Roger Water’s “Vote Obama” balloon pigs floating bye. You sure you weren’t caught back in the 60s on a trip for a minute? (Just kidding of course).
The rest of world is starting to wake from the Socialist/Communist nightmare (we’ll see if they fall back asleep); but the USA has never really entered that nightmare. Like many things, we will have experience the pain on our own before we believe. Let an Obama or Hillary into the White House with a Leftist Congress, and then people will experience real pain. Only then will a majority wake up and say “enough!”
I wonder why death cult members favored the communist! Could it be that communists want them to multiply and destabilize the civil order?
