The results from the London Mayoral election are sill be announced later today. A few days ago the above pamphlet dropped in through my letterbox. “The council estate boy who’ll fix the Tory housing crisis.” I’m always a bit wary of campaigning that goes into class warfare terrotory, but this particular pamphlet manages to stay on the right side of that line. It says “I’m one of you” without saying “and we hate them”.
I didn’t get a pamphlet from Zack Goldsmith. If he loses the election I’ll remember him as the guy who went nuclear and declared that Khan was unfit to:
protect Britain’s capital from a terrorist attack because of questions about his links to Islamist extremists
Khan is a muslim so he can’t protect London from terrorists. Sheesh. Whichever way the election goes, I’m rooting for Khan if only so that dirty campaigning doesn’t pay off.
