The moment I saw this headline I smelt the stench of Policy Exchange and Trevor Phillips. Of course, I was right. Genuine and serious root cause analysis (not this funding chasing claptrap) would force you to observe the percentage of 'gangland' murders linked to... poverty.

So let me get this straight - Ken Livingstone has been forced to resign from the Labour Party for some Ill-judged (but not anti Semitic) words but Tony Blair, who helped unleash the Four Horses of the Apocalypse on Iraq, is still a member?
