London Mayor Blames Trump For Rise Of Online Abuse

Sadiq Khan says he has received 233,000 abusive Tweets since becoming London’s Mayor and that former US President Donald Trump bears some of the responsibility.

According to The BBC:

Addressing Stanford University students in California, Mr Khan partly blamed a 1,892% rise in abuse to Donald Trump’s election as US president.

A feud started in 2017 when Mr Trump criticised the mayor over his response to the London Bridge terror attacks.

“He’s not my biggest fan,” Mr Khan told the audience in Silicon Valley.

Mr Khan was elected mayor of London in May 2016, six months before Mr Trump won the White House.

“During those four years he was president, that led to me having to receive police protection and a lot of racial abuse,” Mr Khan said on Tuesday.

“In the last year of him being president, once he was banned from Twitter, I received the least racial abuse of any time over five years.

“On the one hand, social media – Facebook Twitter – great. On the other hand, that’s the consequence of lack of control and lack of regulation…..”

Asked about Elon Musk’s plans to reverse Mr Trump’s Twitter ban, he said “everybody should be entitled to be rehabilitated”.

“Let’s wait and see if Donald Trump has learnt his lesson. If it’s the case that Donald Trump is going to use Twitter responsibly, I think that’s all well and good.

“If he breaks the rules, there needs to be consequences and we can’t afford a situation where people think social media is where people behave irresponsibly, where you see an increase in not just racism, sexism and misogyny but also division.

“I hope Elon Musk, now he’s in charge of Twitter, understands that.”

What a virtue-signalling little weasel Khan is. He really is vile. Incidentally, I have no time for Trump either, in case you are reading me for the first time. I revile him too.

It has been my experience as a journalist, that public figures who cloak themselves in a veil of political correctness and virtue, usually have the most skeletons in their closets.

Khan strikes me as someone with plenty to hide. Of course, I might be wrong.  Once upon a time the Sunday red tops would be all over him like a rash. I mean, nobody is that perfect right?

When his handlers are done with him, when they need another useless idiot to push their dystopian agendas, then we might find out who Sadiq Khan really is.
