This descriptive quote from @acitrano.bsky.social says it all.

"It's almost impossible to believe he exists. It's as if we took everything that was bad about America, scraped it up off the floor, wrapped it all up in an old hot dog skin, and then taught it to make noises with its face."

I’d like to see display boards around our towns & cities , displaying the air quality . Pollution is an unseen & silent killer .
Khan was correct to pursue this policy , benefitting all Londoners .
What sort of person doesn’t want to breath better quality air ? Morons .

They have control of almost everything.

Almost all your money goes to them, nearly 70% of people are employed by them.

They don't pay tax, they don't maintain the essential industries that they control, they get 12% richer every year.

You cannot just ignore them.

ID cards - not a problem

Digital ID cards - lots more questions but maybe acceptable

Digital ID cards to stop illegal working - totally unnecessary

Where “putting in measures to stop” Farage’s showboating media dominance amounts to the media just doing their job - ie refusing to amplify the torrent of hate-fuelled bollox that pours out of him, exposing his populist splutterings for the nonsense they invariably are and focusing on other parties.

Mary Robinson always was one of the good ‘uns. These are not times for niceties and diplomacy - they are times for telling it straight, no sugar!!

I wonder what it is about popular, working class, successful, intelligent, handsome, London born, well educated, happily married, child of hard working immigrant parents, human rights advocate, thrice elected London Mayor, Sir Sadiq Khan that Trump doesn't like?

European here

No we haven’t banned air conditioning

Or chosen to stop using it because it costs too much

many homes in Europe are over 100yrs old, & some are many 100’s of years old

air con is tricky to have installed so most of us don’t have it
