Ken and Fidel, Together At Last

Thanks to the hawk-eyed reader who left a comment for us yesterday pointing out this story from the Hindustan Times, which promsies "Fidel Castro could come to London soon."

The story goes (picked up in The Times a couple of days ago) that Ken is planning celebrations to mark the Cuban revolution next year, and part of these celebrations would be an appearance by the "78-year-old Cuban leader".

Although the Times report is good, we much prefer the Hindustan Times outlook on the whole thing:

"The invitation could cause problem for Tony Blair, he being a great ally of President Bush. But Livingstone, called Red Ken, would hardly worry about that."
