Sadiq Khan 'set to win London mayoral race'

[livingdead]

That other guy was doing a smear campaign to woo the Indian votes but we did not believe him, Khan is a better Mayor for everyone. But he ain't getting my gold




I know the funny thing is most people I know did not even vote, nobody cares even it seems.

conservative campaign was very negative... plus they had an unknown guy..

His father was a bus driver, I respect people that work hard and came from a humble background.. but let's see if he delivers now

Zac was never a real candidate, a conservative heavy weight like Cameron or Boris would have done the job. More importantly conservative’s negative campaign against Khan was never appreciated, that was the last nail in the coffin for Zac.

Yeah,but not all muslim immigrants.When i've said "his chance" i've ment that in Europe,despite colour of skin,faith,if you deserve something,you get it.

that will be true if he gets elected in brighton, cardiff or some city with less black+ minority population. In europe? this is uk that too london, nothing common with rest of country let alone continent.
you seem to confuse selection and election. You select somebody because of his quality irrespective of his origin, I can understand. This guy is a sitting member of parliament in an area in london, he is fielded because of his winnability, not because labour wants to give 'chance' to a muslim.

Boris was a fine Mayor, Zac lacked charisma he was like forgettable. Funny thing was he was asked do you like bollywood? he said ohh I love bollywood but he was mumbling and asked can you name 1 bollywood film? he started umming and mumbling lol

When Cameron said Khan would be a disaster it made me decide to vote for Khan, it was a total negative campaign.

Yes I have seen that video and his reaction was cringe worthy, his entire campaign was no different.

Zack was endorsed by Imran Khan.You're free to show examples where somebodycoming from a minority background was denied something based on his ethnicity in the last years somewhere in Europe.

Aren't the blacks nominally Christian in their majority in Londinium ?

I did not care, because london problems are simply bigger than the Mayor. It would hardly make any difference. But among the two a better, self-made person won. This is always good and inspiring.

Imran khan is nobody in London politics. If you meant pakistani voters rejected Imran Khan's appeal and voted for another khan, well that hardly means giving 'muslim' dude chance.
He was chosen by labour for winnability and he delivered. There was no 'chance' given. simple.

Boris did put London on the map, he fought for London. Hope Khan does the same.

The former mayor,Boris the blade,wants out of the EU.Now,maybe we'll have a BREXIT but certainly London doesn't want out.

I'm not up on English politics but as Tommy Jefferson said, 'The people get the leadership they deserve.'

He is a elitist can we expect otherwise? he was hand-picked

I am voting out, I have many East European friends but we are a small country and filled to the brim if they let in Turkey and others it's over. **** the EU I had enough of Brussels.

Now you're just dense,sry.I've explained what i've ment by chance given and it wasn't ment as something delivered but the opposite.

It's really not that bad,he seems very much ok.

TBH I asked several people if they did cast their vote, few told me they forgot and others just looked miserable and said no.

No biggie,exercise your Constitutional right man,it's your prerogative to choose your country's future.

What was the turnout in the last UK election? 33% or something? it shows how people don't give a toss anymore.
