London Assembly Lib Dem comment on Ken Livingstone ruling11.45.00am GMT Thu 24th Feb 2005 Commenting on Ken Livingstone being found guilty of bringing his office into disrepute by the Adjudication Panel for England today, Graham Tope, Leader of the Liberal Democrat group on the London Assembly, said: "Mr Livingstone brought this on himself by making these insensitive remarks which caused a good deal of offence to a large number of Londoners. It would have been much simpler for all concerned if the Mayor had apologised immediately as we said he should do so at the time. The nature of these remarks brought the office of the Mayor of London into disrepute and caused damage to community cohesion in London."
