Labour Selects Muslim Lawyer to Stand for London Mayor
Al Alarabiya ^

London could get its first Muslim mayor after the main opposition Labour party selected Sadiq Khan, a bus drivers son and former government minister, as its candidate Friday.
Khan, a former human rights lawyer, will stand in elections being held next May to decide who should follow Conservative Boris Johnson, one of Britains best-known politicians, into City Hall.
While the mayor of London has fewer powers than in comparable world cities such as New York, it is a high-profile job which usually attracts ambitious figures.

You know that Labour and our Democrats are clearly mentally deranged. This is evidence.

Britain is much further down the road to the Caliphate than we are. France is already 10% Muslim. Pretty soon it won’t be safe for us to travel to the lovely cities of Europe.

Pretty soon is already here.
Not Europe obviously, but I can remember when it was safe to walk in Mexican border towns.

I was recently in Paris, the biggest problem was the darned Chinese tourists taking selfies all the time and blocking the streets.

Big deal.
It’s only a mayor. We got us a president.

Anyone with some free time should check out videos on youtube by "Pat Condell".He's a *very* intelligent and *very* articulate Brit who has many *very* interesting things to say about the Religion of Pieces...particularly how it effects Europe.But beware,he's also an atheist who posts some videos slamming Christianity.I ignore those and many other Freepers would probably want to as well.
But his views on the Religion of Pieces,as well as those on "progressives",are priceless.

Glad I got my grand tours of Europe done when younger and before all the sh*t hit the fan. Will become too dangerous in certain countries to go to; already is.

This is one candidate in an election. The grandson of working class Muslims who have been here since the 50’s, a hardworking family whose son had come from lowly position to be a successful politician.
Hes a centre left socialist, not Choudray MK2.
