Sir Sadiq Khan

[Neath_Jack]

Well yes i wouldn’t expect you to say anything less but the point is just because people aren’t dying from these acts of terrorism doesn’t mean that London (and the UK) hasn’t became extremely antisemitic towards people that have absolutely nothing to nothing to do with what’s happening in Gaza.
Starmer and Khan are cunts and this country is going down the shitter faster everyday.
Fuck the homicide stats.

What has Starmer or Khan got to do with a lunatic with a knife. What could they have done to stop that incident?

See below for an objective analysis. Even in "nice old'' Canada - cities are less safe, and I am just across the river from Detroit (compare that wonderful City with London for violent crime)
There is a cognitive dissonance between facts and perception - highlighted in this thread - so I think this needs reading and digesting
As of early 2026, London is ranked as one of the safest major cities in the Western world, boasting a homicide rate (1.1 per 100,000) lower than New York, Berlin, and Chicago. While often ranking within the top 15-25 safest cities in global surveys, perception of crime sometimes differs from data. [1, 2, 3, 4]
Key Safety Rankings & Data (2025-2026):

• Homicide Rate: London is considered one of the safest major Western cities, with its 2025 homicide rate lower than European counterparts like Berlin (3.2) and Paris, as well as American cities.
• International Rankings: Berkshire Hathaway Travel Protection recently ranked London as the 13th safest city, while other studies have placed it within the top 10.
• Compared to US Cities: London is significantly safer than major US cities like Chicago (11.7 homicides per 100,000) and Philadelphia. [1, 2, 3, 4]

Key Safety Considerations:

• Violent Crime: Despite high-profile media attention, violent crime has been in decline, with hospitalizations for sharp object assaults dropping to their lowest level in over a decade by 2024.
• Petty Crime: While violent crime is low, petty crime like phone snatching and pickpocketing is prevalent, particularly in crowded tourist areas.
• Public Perception: Despite positive data, many residents (64% in a recent poll) express concern about safety, and a significant portion of the public perceives London as less safe than they did a decade ago

They’ve got lots to do with what’s happening in this country/London,police have been cut,front desks have been closed etc etc.
You know that though so I’m not sure why I’m replying all you are doing once again is trying to be clever because that’s what you and your ilk do when you can’t face the truth,the place is going down the shitter and you lot don’t like to admit it.

Oh right, I didn’t know they were personally responsible for all those things since they came into power. The bloody buggers that they are.

I have to say as someone who has lived in London for the past thirty years, and have family in the police service, you don't half spout some bollocks about blaming khan and starmer for the current situation. Labour have been in charge for less than two years and are trying to get a grip on things after 14 years of tory shite. I don't like khan personally but I'll tell you something for nothing, London is quite a nice place to visit these days. I was up oxford street a couple of weeks ago and it was so nice not to deal with diesel taxis and buses everywhere

ECHR and liberal regulations and protections put in place are the root cause of the problems.. and everyone mocks me, but I've said on here before.. the head of border control said that 85% of migrants crossing the channel are between the ages of 19-40.. and the only reason they're crossing is because they can see a weak system they can manipulate and make money.. they're here for greed.. nobody likes to say it though

Thank you for that, I left London in 2018 and moved to Barry, I lived there for 25 years, I miss the place, it is the best(diverse) capital in the world, it's always the people who know fuck all about the real place it is other than reading the right wing press spout off about how "bad" it is, Lisa will agree with me

In the thread on here about closing front desks you said you were very angry about it.

I haven’t blamed them for the current situation I’m blaming them for not making it better as it’s clearly getting worse.
It must be great there’s no buses in Oxford Street when people are getting stabbed elsewhere.

Seems the Islamist who carried out an antisemitic attack also stabbed a Muslim during said attack. Worst Islamist ever.

What’s wrong with kicking him in the head when he was holding a knife then?

Oh shut up you know the country’s in a mess and cut backs aren’t helping.

No idea, you’ll have to ask the fella that posted it.

Perhaps Starmer could have rocked up and thrown one of the police stations front desks on him instead?
