Ken Livingstone - were denied entry into the country under the Prevention of Terrorism Act and met with Livingstone in Northern Ireland instead. Such actions made Livingstone a favourite target for the press, which referred to him as "Red Ken" and associated him with the "Loony Left," alongside Tony Benn, Militant Tendency, and other far-left elements within the Labour Party. However, he favoured European integration and proportional representation (neither of which were particularly popular causes among the British left at that time), and when both the GLC and the Militant-controlled Merseyside council protested the government's rate-capping policy by refusing to set a property tax rate, Livingstone relented rather than face the withdrawl of government grant money. Livingstone's practicality (relative to the rest of the Labour left) may in part explain why his popularity grew.

Veto - In the United States, the President is able to veto legislation passed by the Congress, but this right is not absolute. A 2/3 majority of both houses can adopt a law even against a presidential veto; however, if the proposed law has only a simple majority, the president's veto is decisive. The veto power in the United States Constitution was derived from the British royal assent. On April 5, 1792 President George Washington vetoed a bill designed to apportion representatives among statess. This is the first time the presidential veto was used in the United States.
