I believe in as little government as possible.

I never thought I'd hear a lawyer say that!

The G.L.C. was abolished largely
thanks to Ken, the great survivor!

No, the GLC was abolished entirely thanks to Margaret Thatcher. Ken was
the
democratic choice of London at that time (and this time, despite having no
political party behind him). You should not blame the people's democratic
favourite for Thatcher removing people's democratic voice.

To borrow a quote, "If voting changed anything they'd abolish it". And she
did.
