If one reviews Sadiq's antics (and client history) as a solicitor and his video-ed performances in council meetings - I think it's clear he's a posturing weasel who carefully selects and orchestrates his public exposure.
He is now very obviously swerving *any* media appearances where he might encounter *anybody* who might present a challenge.

Hedgefunds lie the Green movement cos many of the arguments run downhill, the flow is to implement them rather than no
It's like being against Mom and Apple pie.
But those evil oil corps they kill people etc.
And true it's difficult to say "Greens kill people"
and they don't seem to intend to.
But Grenfell is an example of the GreenLaw killing people
No Greenlaw, no cladding, ... no cladding and the fire wouldn't have got out of control.
And probably some pensioners have died thru green measures making energy bills high.
I'm not going to say that them pushing diesels has killed anyone .. I don't think it adds up that way.

Is there a special reason the mostly ethnic Pakistani bus drivers can't use pub toilets ?

@Pcar "Since then, Khan has announced millions of pounds of tax payer cash on green projects,
as well as an increase in the monitoring of so-called “hate crimes”.
"That’s why I plan to allocate £6m to put in place permanent toilets for bus drivers along 40 routes which have limited access or opening hours."
At most that is one at start and end of each route,
in practice many will share start or finish with another route
Assuming 40 new toilets would make £150K for each toilet.

London Mayor Sadiq Khan has announced he’ll be spending £6m of tax payer cash on exclusive* toilets for London bus drivers, while complaining there isn’t enough money for proper policing or surveillance of terror suspects in Britain’s capital
*The toilets will be passcode locked for use of London’s bus drivers, which Khan’s father once worked as.

Dan Hannan Defends Soros and Big Money, Pro Mass Migration Billionaires
I agree with most of what Dan says, but he has also said many things in past which are cringe-worthy and revealed he wasn't as free market/trade as he purports to be.
This, though, does appear to be an exceedingly stupid view.

Look North weatherman Paul Hudson has just been out to see the seals off Whitby to do a plastics item
The boatman claimed plastic bags was a problem, but it was magically fixed with the plastic bag tax.
and all we need to do is bad the rest of plastics.
All that sounds too good to be true as if its the usual report prepared by activist org.
"Here's puffin trapped in abandoned fishing net, and another bird stuck on the chord of an promotional balloon"
I'm not sure if those photos weren't taken 2 minutes before the birds freed themselves.

6:30pm watching Michael Portillo in LA
People go on about London air, but of course LA didn't used to have sky scrapers, cos they'd be in the smog.
.. It has some now, but from the 69th floor you can't see the distance well.
Portillo steps out of the metrol which is in the middle of 12 lanes of freeway .. Surely Sadiq would say there'd be too much NOx and PM

Khant - 2018: £34 Million for GreenFail projects, £6 Million for sh!tholes, ~1,000 plod reading twatter/faceberk; but no stop&search/money to stop rape/drug/gun/knife/acid crime.
Hmm, could it possibly be because rape/drug/gun/knife/acid crime mostly perpetrated by his fellow RoPs & BAMEs?
Not alleging, just asking.
