You were the one who said he "did do a lot for London" and I pointed out that he did more for some bits than others - something you now appear agreeing with as a "natural part of governance". My contention is that what drove Livingstone's 'governance' was a desire to look after the bits of London where his voters were and to hell with the rest, especially the outer London Tory boroughs.
Livingstone's excesses, waste and loony left policies are legend, dating back to the days of the GLC.

Note Livingstone refused to even talk to the Forensic Audit Panel. Just like he showed during the run up to the election Livingstone never minded dodging issues which exposed his flaws.
