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

[Harryflashman]

Who had any idea it’d be that kind of turn out

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

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Bruce has previously posted all the stuff about air pollution but the question still remains, how does raising tax from drivers help reduce pollution ? By all means ban all cars and vehicles.......

Not only pollution but congestion, which remains incredibly high in the city. Whenever it's finally operational Crossrail will probably help, although there is a reasonable argument that it will simply allow us to keep pace with the growing population of the city.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

But it was of a President who was distinctly unfriendly to the U.K.......the phrase “back of the queue” comes to mind.....

Do you honestly believe Trump will want a good deal for the UK? Even with all his rhetoric about putting America first? If anything, we're a much weaker proposition outside of the single market so I'd expect a much worse deal than that agreed via TTIP.

Glad you got back from that ban mate.
Stop stimulating the troll.

My ban?

 

[orchard]

My ban?

I know, totally unjust, maybe a necessary evil though, anyway, glad to see you bouncing back and not letting it effect you too much. Almost like it never happened.

Granted it’s a major problem for you Bruce. Investment in other forms of transport, Nottingham for instance has a really good tram system with parking outside of the city, may well help, Crossrail as you say should too. But daily van deliveries from Amazon, etc etc are increasing at a rate of knots everywhere. Maybe there is no answer other than a draconian edict over transport, or find a way to get people out of London.....

If Amazon wants better infrastructure, they could always try paying the taxes needed to build it, like everyone else does

Something like £40k more than the Trump one as well.

Such a fail of an event. The state of the people who turned up as well lol. These are the types who share your views Pete...

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.......

Wow.

You see racism when it concerns Jeremy Corbyn, you urbane sophisticated globe trotter.

The murder rate in London isn’t the highest, and you’re misdirecting your anger anyway. Hint, look to Westminster.

The Trump blimp was nothing to do with him and he had no powers to stop it. Unless you advocate a clampdown in free speech. Like ISIS.

I don’t live in London, and nowadays I don’t even bother to visit it. The murder rate may not be the highest or lowest or whatever, but still 100+ people have been murdered, which for me is 100+ people too many.

The trump blimp May have had nothing whatsoever to do with Khan, I agree, but his sneaky little smiling face on the TV suggested otherwise.

I would never curtail free speech (there was no need to include the reference to ISIS, I mean really)........
