I suppose I did mean that, yes.

In other news, how is that "more dangerous than New York" thing looking now? You won't believe this- it's looking like total bollocks.

This just feels like the far right resorting to the accusation of being a dickhead with "Yeah...well...you're a dickhead!" but two months later when everyone's long since left the party.

A very good expose on the people behind this.

Cherry picking is advanced statistical analysis for journos.



I am perplexed by the New York comparison in any case. Wasn't it practically memetic in right wing circles that NYC was super-safe after Rudy Giuliani zero-toleranced the shit out of all the darkies, queers and poor people?

[Tubby Isaacs]

Yeah, there are a few tangled tropes in there. If New York's safer than London, does that mean Bill De Blasio hasn't dropped a bollock by scaling back stop and search?

Pointless too. I expect they hoped that Khan would ban it. Not realising that Khan was a bigger man than they (and Trump), and would just laugh it off.

I reckon he should drop by for a photo op, but his security might not be quite so keen

Then again since it's the anniversary of the death of Princess Diana they are just commemorating it with a Khan doll in the wind.
