Extra, Extra

- Ken admits the London Assembly "Don't do any work"...kind of. He wants the assembly scrapped and replaced with a committee of London borough leaders.

- Flood scare stories continue. This time a new rerport claims that 12 miles of the flood barriers protecting east London are "in a poor state".

- After effects of the Northern line debacle: LU issues the first emergency direction to a contractor since the Tube’s part-privatisation. A Ken conspiracy to undermine the PPP?

- Man arrested in connection with the murder of PC Blakelock in the Broadwater Farm riot 20 years ago.

- And new immigration laws seem to involve naming Chelsea players.
