Livingstone suspension frozen by judge

From the Guardian:

"A high court judge has frozen the four-week suspension handed down to Ken Livingstone by the Adjudication Panel, which was due to begin tomorrow."

Mr Livingstone welcomed the decision and went on to say,

"That's good - I'll take the frozen suspension home and it'll de-frost in the microwave faster than you can say 're-election'."

No he didn't.

This is luncay. I'm so glad I don't live in London. Something he really did say was that if he were suspended, he'd take the time to take a holiday or write "something useful about the Middle East".

Shouldn't that say read? (Ed).
