More quotes by Ken Livingstone
I grew up in Lambeth, I went to normal schools and I've grown up in a city where people say what they think.
Ken Livingstone
You lose power in Britain and you are just Joe Public again.
Ken Livingstone
I think it's much more important to keep people in work than have pay rises.
Ken Livingstone
I think George Bush is the most corrupt American president since Harding in the Twenties. He is not the legitimate president. This really is a completely unsupportable government and I look forward to it being overthrown as much as I looked forward to Saddam Hussein being overthrown.
Ken Livingstone
I refuse not to have a sense of humour.
Ken Livingstone
I loathe and detest all this trivialisation of politics.
Ken Livingstone
One thing that Chairman Mao did was to end the appalling foot binding of women. That alone justifies the Mao Tse-tung era.
Ken Livingstone
If I was courting the Muslim vote, I wouldn't have put establishing the partnership ceremony at the forefront of my first term, would I? I go all around London advocating lesbian and gay rights.
Ken Livingstone

Ken Livingstone
Everyone changes all the time.
Ken Livingstone
When I was leader of the GLC, by the time I had been in control for three years, the difference in pay between the cleaner and the director general was a four-to-one ratio. I find that attractive.
Ken Livingstone
I would like to sound like James Mason. I reckon if I'd had a better voice I could have been prime minister. It is the most irritating voice in public life.
Ken Livingstone
[Pigeons are] rats with wings.
Ken Livingstone
I don't just denounce suicide bombers. I denounce those governments which use indiscriminate slaughter to advance their foreign policy.
Ken Livingstone
Well, on lots of small things we could have done better, but on all the big things we called it right. You should make less mistakes as you get older, and I became a councillor back in 1971, so if by this stage in politics I'm making lots of big mistakes, then I shouldn't be here.
Ken Livingstone
To tackle climate change you don't have to reduce your quality of life, but you do have to change the way you live
Ken Livingstone
I can easily lose myself emotionally in absolute Hollywood garbage.
Ken Livingstone
I'm in exactly the same position as everybody else who has a small business.
Ken Livingstone
I go all around London advocating lesbian and gay rights.
