Ken Livingstone denies being ‘sodomised by six men in succession at gay orgy’
By Will Stroude
Viewers of BBC News were in for a slight shock earlier today (December 3) when Ken Livingstone recalled rumours that he’d been “sodomised by six men in succession at a gay orgy” during a discussion about parliament’s vote to extend air strikes against Islamic State in Syria.
The former Mayor of London’s comments came after he was asked if his recent comments that the London 7/7 bombers ‘gave their lives’ in protest at the Iraq war might have led David Cameron to call those opposed to air strikes ‘terrorist sympathisers’, Metro reports.
“It’s a smear campaign that’s absolutely typical of the Tories,” Livingstone replied.
“Don’t forget, you had Tory central office people wandering around the newspapers back when I was leader of the GLC [Greater London Council] saying I’d been sodomised by six men in succession at a gay orgy.”
“The Tory party isn’t in a position where it can complain about dirty tactics – they’ve had decades of dirty tactics”.
