A contest too close to call




This morning's Guardian carries the first poll in a while that has shown a lead for Ken Livingstone in the mayoral race.

According to the paper with less than a week to go to polling

The survey conducted by Ipsos Mori puts Livingstone on 53% - six points ahead of Johnson on 47% - among those certain to vote in next Thursday's election, once crucial second preferences are taken into account. It is Livingstone's biggest lead since the campaign started.
However, the study for Unison, the trade union, found that some of those who said they were certain to vote had not registered. Once that was factored in, Livingstone's lead shrunk to 4%.

Meanwhile an absolute Gem as Iain Martin unearths this classic from the realms of U Tube which was also aired on Have I got news for you last night
