ALMOST 50,000 people have signed a petition to remove Sadiq Khan as London mayor over his controversial Brexit stance.
They are angry at the Labour politician for wanting London to have a bespoke Brexit deal after Article 50 is triggered.
Mr Khan has urged the Government to give the capital "a voice at the table" during upcoming negotiations with Brussels.
And he wants to introduce special work visa for migrants coming to work in London.
More than 47,000 have signed Matthew Lee's petition on Change.org calling for the Mayor to be removed.
He claims Mr Khan's comments are encouraging the growing movement for London to become independent from the UK.
Mr Lee said: "As the Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan has a position of power in the capital.
"He should be discouraging any such action from those who wish to create London as an independent state.
"London is the capital city of the United Kingdom and not the European Union."
Khan beat Zac Goldsmith to become London mayor last year However, in a statement City Hall has reinforced Mr Khan’s stance on Brexit negotiations.
It read: "Sadiq campaigned for Britain to remain in the European Union but respects the democratic will of the people.
"He is determined to secure the best possible deal for London from the Brexit negotiations – because when London flourishes, so does the rest of the country."
In a doom-mongering speech last month, Mr Khan claimed a hard Brexit "could tear Britain apart".
He said: "Securing privileged access to the single market must be the top priority for the negotiations.
"It's critical for London. Nothing else will do. It can't be brushed aside."
The Mayor added: "A hard-line approach to Brexit may hold the Conservative Party together, but it could rip Britain apart.
"A hard Brexit would cut Europe off from its only truly global financial centre. This would be bad news for Europe as well as Britain.
"So a hard Brexit really would be a lose-lose situation."

Chapter 18 of the book of Revelation is very hard on London.

Remove the arrogant SOB’s.
Thousands signing change.org petitions, regardless of the cause, means absolutely nothing and is not in the least bit newsworthy.
definitely remove the sob!
Are these the same people that voted for him because it would be nice to have this nice guy as Mayor
He wants to complete the task of turning London into his own little Mecca.
Some good news out of London. ...
It was not for nothing that London has been referred to, in a rightfully negative way, as “Londonstan”.
The current mayor reveals the agenda he has been part of all along - the “we are not British anymore” agenda.
Exactly.
And nottive, muslim Keith Ellison is the favorite to be the face of the Democratic party.
notice
Deport his muslim ass...or send him to the Tower for “processing”.
Camel Nose.
Camel nose under the tent.
Camel cigarettes.
Two out of three are bad for you.
Or if that is his nickname Camel Nose - 3 out of 3.
All in all I’d invite him out for a ham sangwich.
There were enough warning before the election that he would be Sharia compliant. They may be too late, but it’s good the people speak their minds anyway. Maybe this will curb his most radical ideas for a while.
Same principle as California: let them secede, declare war, drive them into the ocean, resettlement. The stables need cleaned out once in awhile.
Little Paki weasel.
Mr. Kahn the mayor wants his own mini-country. I’m betting the London families, many of which have been there since the 1400’s, will have a bit of an issue with that.
I agree, REMOVE Kahn from office!
A muslim Mayor of London “is not in the least bit newsworthy.”
