To think that Sadiq Khan needs investigated?

[Whatifitallgoesright]

Considering the ongoing disclosures of the extent of the Pakistani rape gangs in London and Khans refusal to even acknowledge them do we think he has bought the office of Lord Mayor into disrepute?

So let's condemn grooming gangs regardless of race. Im completely in favour of that.

And not blame innocent people.

Is that ok?

Why couldn’t he do both? Why couldn’t he put Hall in her place about the perceived racism underlying her question while also addressing the question? I did it easily. Why couldn’t he?

Do you think my proposed reply? Why couldn’t Khan say the same?

Absofuckinglutely

Well - if you’re the Mayor of London you have to care about all communities and you certainly need to answer questions about the most vulnerable.
He’s a politician… he should be able to answer questions .

No - it really isn’t victim blamey.
The only victims here are the victims of the grooming gangs
Sadiq Khan is not a victim. He is the Mayor of London

He did do both, he answered her question.

I think as Mayor he has to be careful because anything he does say gets twisted. Susan doesn't seem to have that problem.

Ok, you will literally tell everyone he's shit for breathing at this point.

Do you know who's really good at answering these questions? Polanski.
Or do you hate him too?

Yet you are blaming him over the actual perpetrators.

Oh FFS 🤦‍♀️

Oh really? Because I thought he should answer a question?

Quite

The victims of the grooming gangs need justice and accountability from the authorities but this doesn't mean that a mayor of British Pakistani heritage has to accept being racially abused by people like Susan Hall and Tommy Robinson and Elon Musk.

It's possible to be appalled by what happened to the victims of the grooming gangs but also be appalled by people trying to exploit their pain for political gain.

So he should be better than you?

I confess I'm not really following your train of thought.

He did answer the question. Statistically, the biggest issue affecting London's children is county lines. Is he supposed to pretend that's not the case?

@Whatifitallgoesright
Hi Donald.

Is this all to distract from the disgusting allegations made against P Andrew ?

No he didn’t. He talked about county lines, a different type of abuse, general exploitation, and police numbering of high profile criminals. The video is there for all to see on the previous page. He didn’t once answer about grooming gangs.

This apparently isn't ok.

I must hate khan too. For no reason and it's completely not racist. And I'm not allowed to say it might be or I'm an idiot.

He needs to answer the question ( showing respect to the victims) . As a politician he should be able to do that whilst also calling out Susan Hall for any snidey racist insinuations .

No - you’re not . 🙄

Like Cyril smith?

Or that tractor porn dude?

You seriously think it’s ‘racist’ to call something out for what it is? It’s a disgrace that people are still covering up for the Pakistani men who are perpetuating the grooming and raping of women. Hardly surprising I guess as they come from a place of seeing women as second class citizens. It’s attitudes like yours which have allowed this to pattern to go on for so long.

You REALLY don’t want anyone to talk about Sadiq Khan do you … 🧐

I don’t think listing a series of predators whose crimes were covered up by institutions, politicians, and police is quite the win you think it is in a debate about whether Khan has contributed to institutions, politicians and police covering up abuse.

Different thread. Different issue. People can be equally appalled about both don’t you think?
