Recently ousted London mayor Ken Livingstone won't be sitting on his laurels for long. The eight-year mayor, the first London had after the position was created in 2000, will be hosting a radio call-in show on LBC.

Former London Mayor Ken Livingstone has been given his own weekly radio phone-in show on station LBC.

Mr Livingstone, who was ousted by Boris Johnson after eight years at the helm, will start presenting the show later in the summer.

He said he was "absolutely delighted" to be joining the station.

Mr Livingstone, 62, had earlier said he would be doing some gardening after his defeat and that he had "two months' worth of weeding" to tackle.
