Default Europhile Livingstone squanders £226, 000 on pigeons

News of London's europhile leftist Mayor 'Ken' Fibingstone - who has wasted nearly a quarter of a million Pounds on trying to get rid of the much-loved Trafalgar Square pigeons (famous around the globe):

From ITV 1 Teletext, page 316 (analogue), 3.05 pm on 29.9.2006

“£226, 000 cost of pigeon fight’

Ken Livingstone’s battle to clear pigeons from Trafalgar Square has already cost at least £226, 000.

Taxpayers have spent an average of £90 for each bird which has been removed since 20033, according to figures from the London Assembly Liberal ‘Democrats’.

The London mayor, who has branded birds “rats with wings”, has spent between £38, 160 and £78, 241 a year on hiring two hawks to kill the pigeons.
