Old Pals Act

Peter Brookes had a great cartoon in The Times the other day which depicted Jeremy Corby, John McDonnell and Ken Livingstone as three old lags celebrating their successful heist of the Labour Party in a London pub.

Readers with long memories will recall that John McDonnell was deputy leader to ken Livingstone in the good  old bad old days before the Greater London Council (GLC) was finally abolished in 1986. 

At that time Jeremy Corbyn was very much the junior of his two colleagues being a lowly backbench MP at a time when the Conservatives enjoyed a big majority government under Margaret Thatcher. 

Ken, John and Jeremy will be 75, 69 and 71 respectively around the time of the next UK general election in 2020.
