Breitbart ^ | 08/20/2022 | Kurt Zindulka

Rather than taking responsibility himself, London mayor Sadiq Khan has tried to blame the crime wave ravaging the British capital on the cost of living crisis, after previously blaming the weather.

Over the past week, London streets have been bloodied by a string of violent attacks including six homicides, one of which saw an 87-year-old man stabbed to death while riding his mobility scooter.

“one of which saw an 87-year-old man stabbed to death while riding his mobility scooter.”

The Mayor said “He should have gotten the 12 Volt. They did him a favor.”

I remember back when Bobby Kennedy was murdered in the USA (1968) that the London newspapers were screaming, about London’s rising crime rate.

“Because one of the complex causes of crime is deprivation, poverty, lack of opportunities, and so forth.

If that were true, crime would have absolutely skyrocketed to unheard of proportions during the Great Depression, but it did not.

The ever-changing excuses, boring. There’s always weather and some people are always poor.

But there’s not always high rates of violent crime.

Those excuses shouldn’t cut it, but apparently London voters buy them.

I was poor in my younger days—and for some reason it never occurred to me to commit crimes.

Maybe I wasn’t paying close enough attention in class.

Sadiq Khan will get 100% or more of the Paki vote, so he will be mayor as long as he wants. All that cheap curry the English love, turns out to be very expensive. It comes at the price of invasion.

Same as Germany got trillions in cheap gas from Vlad, the price was invasion of Ukraine.

Muslims imported from the third world are the cause.
