Ken will be sarcastic, slimey and generally horrible.

George Galloway (TalkSport) is at least able to be somewhere near impartial and occassionaly has good manners. Ken is not a gentleman and almost devoid of natural personality or genuine good humour, maybe it’s the scotch.

Horrible idea LBC, this will upset stomachs. Bad move.

Jeni Barnett is a real sparkly delight too, despite being a bit lefty. Please keep her- replacing her with Ken Livingstone - surely that’s a massive loss of audience? Maybe it’ll attract social workers. Oh yum.

LBC why ?!

His voice is not one I would want to listen to for long, either.

I’m looking forward to it. Good to hear an increasing number left-wing voices in the ocean of conservatism that is British radio. Gorgeous George started the trend, now we’ll hear what Red Ken has to say.

Ken is brilliant.

He invented the office.

He needs a public award.

A standing ovation isn’t good enough for him.
