Ken Livingstone sparks anger with 'hang bankers' speech

Labour mayoral candidate Ken Livingstone has made a series of contentious remarks about the banking sector.
Ken Livingstone has provoked fresh controversy, after telling an audience: "Hang a banker a week until the others improve."

The British Bankers' Association rounded on the comments, made at an after dinner speech to the Electrical Contractors' Association on Wednesday evening, and reported in Friday's Sun. The paper said the Labour mayoral candidate was criticising the finance sector's failure to contribute to securing Britain's future at the time.
