I read the London papers every day; as many faults as they have, they actually report the news a fair amount of time compared to the propaganda sheets masquerading as newspapers in the U.S. London is beset by a wave of knife crime; many young people and even some folks out of the blue are attacked by crazies with knives with too many deaths. This guy seems powerless to stop its upward trajectory but then again, he is busying himself with international issues.
He sounds like a San Francisco type mayor.
More concerned with World events vs boring local crimes that the victims probably deserved in his opinion.
