    i` sure the son of a bus driver from a council estate in Tooting,is more likely to have my interests at heart ,than a Eton educated Tory boy from Westminster , no matter what religion he is .

I say let's embrace this fact and celebrate what a wonderfully diverse city of ours this is.

      I think my grandchildren will have great pride that London led the way in a new century, rejecting the efforts of those who would divide us purely for their own gain. London has always prided itself on its inclusivity. This is a massive positive. If we truly want to have peace in this world, this is the way to do it. Goldsmith waged a vicious smear campaign against Khan and it backfired big time. That shows me that London does not kow-tow to the the corporate right wing agenda, but goes its own way. Well done London, I'm proud to call this city my home.
      nice speech Hubs, unfortunately a large percentage of ex Londoners disagree and have voted with their feet. This result would never have happened 20 years ago

          Nothing really, but it does appear he was voted in cos of his religion. Muslims were 130% in attendance in the polls whatever that means.

            But current Londoners (of which only 12% are Muslim) voted with their er...hands, and here we are. I agree totally with Hubble. We need to embrace change, saying things like "London is now an Islamic state" puts us back 20 years. He was voted in because his policy's are sound, he is the figurehead for the LABOUR party, not a figurehead for ISIS. He'll be working to put Labour policy's in place, not Sharia law.

            btw Calgary has had a Muslim mayor since 2010, they seem to be doing ok: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naheed_Nenshi

                              Thats still over a million mind, but they tend to live in the same areas as each other so it can appear to be more then reality.

                              If a tourist only saw Loftus Road on match day, he'd go home and tell everyone Shepherds Bush is full of white English!
