"Just posted on LinkedIn pointing out how much food and electricity we waste on Christmas Day. Perhaps he would rather we didn’t celebrate it? " Can't really argue with his saving record . . . 'Mayor confirms relocation of City Hall to protect services 03 November 2020 Leaving current building and moving to Royal Docks will save £61m over five years - £6m more than originally forecasted The savings will help the Mayor protect front-line public services and invest in London’s economic recovery Moving to The Crystal, a building already owned by the GLA, will help support huge regeneration project in East London The Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, has confirmed today that the Greater London Authority (GLA) will leave its current City Hall home next year and move its headquarters to The Crystal building in the Royal Docks. The move will save the GLA Group £61m over five years and £126m over ten years. With the GLA Group facing a £500m financial black hole this year and next due to Covid-19, and tax income expected to be lower for several years to come, the savings will be used by the Mayor to protect front-line public services including the police, the London Fire Brigade, and key transport services and to invest in London’s economic recovery.' | |||

"The Congestion Charge zone had not been extended to the north and south circulars, the ULEZ has and this is a Khan policy alone. Allegedly this has been done to improve air quality in inner London despite the original ULEZ zone (central London only) being a total failure in this regard. The only net result of this expansion is that many households are now up to £4500 a year worse off due to not being in a position to change vehicle and businesses losing custom due to drivers of offending vehicles taking their custom elsewhere. __ Let's not forget as well that it's Khan who used the covid crises as an excuse to segregate off lanes of traffic and block entire roads in the name of creating cycle lanes and "going green." All this achieved was worsening the traffic and journey times in London and increasing emissions from idling engines __ The actual changes demanded by govt was an increase in the charge and charging hours of the Congestion Charge, not an increase in it's boundaries. Instead of standing up for ordinary Londoners and pushing back, Khan rolled over and accepted these measures despite it being detrimental to London's businesses and "night time" economy. __ Sadiq is also the man who wants to bring in a charge drive in to the boundaries of London. So somebody who has been priced out of the city and suburbs but needs to commute in to outer Londoner could now be hit with up to £800 a year for the privilege. " I literally don't know anyone who is £4500 worse off as a result. This is a claim constantly pushed by car magazines and some newspapers. This is the worse case scenario for people with the worse polluting vehicles. ULEZ was announced many years ago. Everyone I knew with non compliant vehicles sold them to people outside ULEZ. Doesn't matter if this isn't congestion charge in name, it's a similar scheme. In fact, it's actually better than what the government demanded as anyone outside ULEZ can enter with a compliant vehicle without paying. ULEZ wasnt pushed out because the first phase was a "failure". It was always going to be pushed out the N and S circular. Pollution in London is terrible so it needs ULEZ otherwise it will just get worse. --- Many cycle lanes put up during covid were temporary to allow more people to use bikes. As for the permanent ones, a recent study (Imperial College) shows that they haven't worsened traffic in London at all. Daily mail recently posted an article saying a study says the opposite. But the 'study' was literally a quote from the a company called Inrix (with links to the car industry) pretty much saying "traffic is worse because we said so" with no data backing the claims up. Note, Inrix has massive financial interest in proliferation of cars and reduction of cycle infrastructure.. --- Ah, now something the Tories are actually responsible for, and it's Khans fault? LOL. -- This is something that hasnt even been implemented. | |||

"I'm not London based, so take all I say on the matter with a pinch of salt...but it appears to everywhere else in the country that Khan is being blamed for alot of the changes the rest of the country also faces, changes which have been government imposed. In Coventry we've had systematic attacks on our public services, travel and "low skilled" industry. But unlike ldn we don't have a mayor for the government to blame, so here, the government are seen as responsible. " There are a few reasons people don't like Khan: The cabbie and automotivr industry despise him as they view him as a threat to their conservative industry (they hate change). Khan has the nerve to stand up to the government and call out the Tories for their bullshit during covid in regards to funding. Khan is brown. Khan is Labour (that being said, many labour voters who are bus drivers, cabbies, etc succumbed to the campaign against him by the car industry). Khan has spoken out against Trump. | |||

The daily mail know full well, who inrix work for and will know the report is flawed. They will also know their owner doesn’t pay U.K. tax but still slag people on benefits for getting money for nothing, just like their owner. Only he gets millions off the U.K. government each year. | |||

"Khan has spent the majority of his time as mayor clearing up the mess Bojo made. Are we forgetting the mess that is the new Routemasters, Garden Bridge, Emirates Cable Cars? Bojo left TFL in tatters with an annual deficit of £1.5B. The Conservative party purposely didnt give TFL and LU relief during covid, despite giving money to every other private rail franchise. They held TFL at random unless Khan did the following: - Extend the congestion charge zone to N and S circular. - Increase TFL fares - Increase London Council Tax. Back when Bojo was Major he did the following: - Cancelled a planned extension of the congestion charge zone - Froze TFL fares - Reduced London Council Tax Back when Boris was mayor, TFL used to get £1B from the Treasury. Wonder why they don't get the same funding now...?" The government has had to bale out TFL to the sum off £4 billion so far during the covid crisis. To say TFL has received no money is a complete lie. | |||

The fact is that the buck stops with Khan, he is elected to support and stand up for the rights and well being of his electorate, something he singularly failed to do by meekly accepting unfair terms of TFL bailout. Especially when you consider that the government had vast sums of money to waste on Dido Harding and the failed track and trace scheme, the TFL bailout is a drop in the ocean. ___ Regarding the ULEZ expansion (again), studies have proven that the original ULEZ has cut emissions but a negligible amount. Based on this there is no justifiable reason (on environmental grounds) to extend it, but seeing as how motorists are viewed as cash cows by both the govt and Khan it went ahead, as will (most probably) the punitive charges to drive into outer London. How it is fair or acceptable to pick the pockets of ordinary workers to prop up a public transport system I do not know but if it was a Tory mayor the outrage and "class war accusation" would be very loud indeed. Especially as not everybody is in the position to fork out for a ULEZ compliant vehicle | |||

"Chuck the Khan out come May 2nd There's an echo in here Yeap sure is Who would you want as mayor ?" At this point I cant care who becomes Mayor as long as it aint Sadiq Khan, I'm sure even Count Binface would do a better then him but Im leaning towards voting for Howard Cox the "climate denier" to some people | |||

He actually is. "there is no climate crisis, convinced man is not responsible for global warming". Howard Cox. If you think someone who thinks science isn't real would be a good leader. Fair play to you. | |||

"Why does Sadiq Khan keep saying crime in London has been falling when it hasn't. For example between 2008 and 2016 when Boris Johnson was London Mayor, 118 teenagers were murdered. However since Sadiq Khan been Mayor from 2016 there's been London over 160 teenagers (and counting) that have been murdered. If thats going down then he better convince the parents of those teenagers that crime going down" I dont know the exact numbers you are looking at, but they may be factually true, but thats only part of crime. So you both may be right. I've seen a graph on all murders. The rate was falling loads with Ken Livingstone and that continued for a part with BJ. But the started rising again. That rise continued with the start of SK but has since tirned the corner. So one may argue that BJ has low numbers because he rode the tide of KL, but made things worse. And SK has worse numbers coz he's had to turn around the situation BJ left London in. It's a position. I'd say just quoting a number each may not be entirely helpful for a discussion | |||

"People have to realise voting for Sadiq Khan for a third term is the worse case scenario as London isnt the same as it used to be with high crime (despite what he say), high council taxes, LTNs in unecessary locations, ban on right and left turns and next year will be charging people who drive to use the Blackwall Tunnel. Sick of it quite frankly and will step up my campaign to get him out by any means" "ban on right and left turns" that's right, you can only drive in a straight line now in London. "get him out by any means", maybe you can clarify this. It sounds violent and terrifying. | |||

"It's going to be an easy win for Sadiq. I don't know how the Tories chose Susan Hall. She seems clueless. But the election after that will be hard for Labour/Sadiq. Right now, he is taking credit for good things which happens in London while blaming the Tories for all bad things. After Labour wins the next GE, he wouldn't have that option. And the anti-incumbency sentiment will peak." They've fielded a useless candidate in Susan Hall because they DON'T WANT to win the mayoral election. They want to keep Sadiq Khan as a useful idiot to impose unfair fines and levies (like ULEZ) whilst maintaining a facade of outrage. Nobody wants to improve London for regular people they all just want out money to prop up the rest of the country It's an absolute joke that one of the world's premier cities has such a poor choice of candidates. | |||
