Current Affairs Sadiq Khan......London Mayor.....

[tsubaki]

The bikini thing is a complete embarrassment, as they don’t appear to realise that the ad that was banned for body shaming, was originally banned by the ASA in 2015......Khan became Mayor a year later......

You have to question the motives of those who both arranged this and are somehow revelling in it. This started when Khan rubber stamped the decision to allow the Trump balloon to fly, a decision that he had no place overturning as there was no reason to not allow the political satire and thus sanction free speech. Ironic given that the alt and far right continually bleat about their freedom of speech being impinged.

However, would the London Mayor have been the focus of the Trump balloon ire if he was a white non Muslim?

I think not, they’ve then exacerbated this thinly veiled racism, by adding the bikini, as the alt and far right peddled the myth that the decision to ban that ad was down to him not wanting to see women in bikinis due to his Muslim background.

I agree, so why would pete like it so much?

So it’s neither funny nor even vaguely clever, it’s merely poorly disguised bigotry imo.

Ah

No mate,it is funny, and unlike you I don’t see any racist connotation, because I don’t do racism. It’s quite strange how some people see racism in everything while those of us who are actually well versed in other cultures don’t. You need to travel more. Khan tried to be clever and now he’s being found out. He attacked the US President for no other reason than he was previously embarrassed by said person for the absolute shambles that is London law enforcement.

He deserves to be ridiculed, for his shameless attempt to embarrass our closest ally, while presiding over the highest murder rate for London, while attacking motorists with all the zeal of the inept.......

That's twisting things a bit, Pete. The mutual antipathy between Khan and Trump started when Trump stuck the boot into Khan over his response to the London terror attacks in 2017.

I'm no fan of Khan, I find him rather slimy, but I don't get the grief he gets from yourself and others over the London crime rate. He's not responsible for policing decisions and funding and he's only held office for about 2 years and it's not that recent a thing, despite the relatively recent spike.

Ah

And that’s where you guys fall down. Always with the racist innuendo even when it patently is about competence....

Not like you to try and make out your experience somehow trumps ( pun intended) seemingly everyone else’s mate. You have literally no idea how much travelling I’ve done and where I’ve been and it’s a ridiculous argument anyway, especially in the context of this specific discussion.

The undercurrent to this is obvious, just watch the ‘sorts’ who’ll turn out for this ‘event’ tomorrow for confirmation

Pete the blimp is organized by an anti-semite. An incompetent one.

He is responsible for London Policing. He has hidden away, then ignored it, then blamed cuts. Meanwhile he is full of ideas of how to screw motorists. His moral compass is facing the wrong way. I believe him to be a lightweight politician and certainly no leader. If he was one of my kids I’d have given him a serious talking to, to get his act together......

He’ll have pocketed a fair chunk of the 58 bags he conned out of racists tbf like.

Shame the balloon looks more like Mourinho though.

Then don’t try and insinuate racism....

I wasn’t insinuating it, I was plainly saying it.

I wasn’t insinuating it, I was plainly saying it.

And you were wrong, as usual......

 

[Moomin]

Does Pete drink with Tommy Robinson?

 

[Foot Long Hot Dog]

And you were wrong, as usual......

In your opinion.

 

[peteblue]

In your opinion.

No. If you can ever point to one of my posts that ever suggest racism then be my guest. You use this as a form of attack which I find reprehensible, a throwaway insult, an implied sly denigration. I will argue with anyone about anything, but your use of this form of debate is a disgrace and you should be ashamed.......

Go and read what I actually wrote and point out where I made any accusation towards YOU. Unless you’re willingly putting YOURSELF into the category of ‘they’ that I clearly referred to, in which case that’s your issue.

I think we can all see what you wrote. A simple apology would suffice, I hold no grudges....
