The Bitteratti Gilligan excels himself in tonight's London Evening Standard.
He accuses Labour's Leader in the London Assembly Len Duvall of - and believe me, I am quoting word for word - "one of the most absurd things I've ever heard."
What crime could this be?
Apparently Len has had the temerity to have formally reported Boris Johnson to the "City Hall Watchdogs" for prejudicing the police inquiry into the theft of information from the Home Office.
The BG reckons there's no point in having an elected Chair of the Police Authority (Boris) if he can't comment about the abuse of police power. But what the BG ignores is what Boris was saying, after speaking to a person who had been arrested, was that there was no case to answer. Absolutely prejudging if not prejudicing the inquiry. Oh, bugger. I've just prejudged the inquiry into Boris prejudging....
If Gilligan really wants to hear something truly absurd he should read one of his own articles out loud.
Oh, but I forgot. The Bitteratti Gilligan is an expert on leaks and their consequences. And not only for himself.
