A variety of new stories for your delectation:

Papers show Ken Livingstone used public servants in vote battle says The Times. They have solid looking email evidence that staff at the GLA were working on Ken Livingstone’s re-election campaign when they shouldn’t have been.
The one who isn’t Ken or Boris: more from The Times, this time a friendly write-up of Brian Paddick.
Boris Johnson In £250K Mayor Donation Scandal: the Mirror has the story about the new set of financial questions over Boris Johnson’s campaign (see previous here and here).

And in less happy news, one of the Liberal Democrat councillors in Hackney has switched to Labour.

Read more by Mark Pack or more about boris johnson or brian paddick.
