Senior aide to Ken Livingstone “General” Lee Jasper has been forced to resign after a series of leaked emails brought to light his failure to spell correctly even very small words.
On pages 1, 2, 4, 5 and 6 of yesterday’s Evening Standard, a series of spelling errors were “outed”, including “honey-glaze” spelled “honey glase”, “magnificently” spelled “magnifecently”, and a confusing reference to loving “thee feet” - though it is believed this was merely a typo.
Jasper was due to account for himself at a meeting of the GLA today, though it became clear that he would have to resign after they refused to provide him with an amanuensis.

Actually, General Lee was not pro slavery - he free his own slaves. However, as a Southerner (a Virginian) he felt that he had to fight on the side of ‘his people’. Before hostilities broke out the U.S Government to retain Lee’s services for the North. However, Lee rejected the command of the Union’s field forces on the day after Virginia seceded.
