Sadiq Khan MP, was confirmed on Friday. Mr. Khan, 45, has had a successful career in the Labour Party, being elected to parliament in 2005 and becoming a minister of state in 2008, with a promotion in 2009. He was a shadow secretary of state for justice from 2010-15 and has been running for London Mayor since then. ...

Pretty much says it all.

Defended 9/11 Terrorists

Wow that got my attention, so I followed the links. They don't quite support the headline though:

"Sadiq Khan, name partner of Christian Khan, was a ‘consultant’ on the defence team of Zacharias Moussaoui and the only practising Muslim on the team, but he was not actually allowed to see Moussaoui when he went to the US in the role of consultant."

It's a pity when people exaggerate because it undermines the credibility of more serious concerns about Khan.

The Economist has coverage here:

"A capital decision
Sadiq Khan will be London’s new mayor
THE official declaration has not yet taken place, but already it is arithmetically certain that Sadiq Khan has won London’s election and will be the capital’s new mayor. With over 90% of ballots counted he leads Zac Goldsmith, his Tory rival, by 44% to 35%. The decisiveness of his victory is easy enough to understand. London is a Labour city; in Britain, as across northern Europe, the centre-left vote has held up better in metropolitan areas than elsewhere.
***
Mr Khan had, for example, appeared on platforms with Suliman Gani, a radical imam. Yet as a prominent British Muslim, a civil liberties lawyer and a big figure in London politics (Mr Goldsmith, too, had appeared alongside Mr Gani), it is only natural that Mr Khan should have crossed paths with such characters. Dark Tory warnings about his sympathies looked paranoid when set against his broadly liberal record: the MP for Tooting had supported gay marriage (for which he received death threats), fought to keep a local pub open and had condemned recent incidents of anti-Semitism in Labour with a vigour conspicuously unmatched by its leadership."

OK, so he may have personally a good record at the present time, when London does not yet have enough Muslims to impose Sharia, but he believes in a religion that commands him to impose Sharia when that becomes possible there. London has more than 10% Muslims, so if we assume that most Muslims voted for Khan, then that implies most non-Muslims voted against him. The non-Muslims have good reason to feel concerned: installing Muslims in charge of the police can build the foundation for what happened to Hans Litten and what is currently happening in Bangladesh, where groups of Muslim vigilantes ("Sharia patrols") murder blasphemers and are never prosecuted. London endured a year of Sharia patrols, which the police did little about until they provoked a backlash of Christian patrols. The London Sharia patrols didn't murder anyone there as far as I know, but they advocate a doctrine that commands them to murder people, and one of their alumni is reportedly the "New Jihadi John" chopping off Britons' heads on video. Now the Mayor believes in that doctrine also.

Which is sad because it's legal to f*ck hoes in London. Damn, one can take seminars at London U (sorry Univ of London, according to dickless bob, who's jealous because he's a loser state univ graduate in America), get hammered at the West End, and bang a hoe.

"As many as 373 children may have been targeted for sex by gangs of men in Oxfordshire in the last 16 years, a serious case review found.
***
Thames Valley Police and Oxfordshire County Council made "many errors" in that case and could have acted sooner.
***
The report also called for research into why a significant proportion of people convicted in these kind of cases are of "Pakistani and/or Muslim heritage".

In the Oxford case, known as Operation Bullfinch, two of the men were of east African origin and five of Pakistani origin.
***
In May 2011, Thames Valley Police and Oxfordshire County Council launched Operation Bullfinch - a joint investigation into suspected serious sexual offences against children across the county.

Two years later, seven men were convicted at the Old Bailey of 59 counts of offences including rape, trafficking and arranging or facilitating prostitution.

Since then, four more men have been convicted as part of the inquiry.
***
One victim was forced to have an illegal back-room abortion when she was 12 after falling pregnant at the hands of one of her abusers.
***
The force confirmed no officers or individuals had faced any disciplinary action over Operation Bullfinch but it has referred itself to the Independent Police Complaints Commission.
***
Jim Leivers, Oxfordshire County Council's director for children, education and families, said the council, where no staff have been disciplined, "made many mistakes and missed opportunities to stop the abuse".

The chief executive of the county council Joanna Simons has resisted calls to resign but may be made redundant this summer after proposals were voted through to axe the £250,000-per-year post, as part of savings."

Bigoted smear.

The guy won because of his proposed policies.

Look at all those White Britons, probably all UKIP voters and EDL members.

So this is in addition to Rotherham, Rochdale, Peterborough, Derby, etc. rape and grooming gangs with hundreds of victims and a willfully blind police and social worker establishment in every case (there are more than the ones I listed, too)

Heard on the radio.....More than 1 in 8 London residents are Muslim. They must have voted in droves.
A step towards sharia laws. Nothing to worry about.

[Oxfordshire] is in addition to Rotherham, Rochdale, Peterborough, Derby, etc

Wow, yet again.

Rotherham:

"No One Listened to Rotherham’s Sex Gang Whistleblower
***
In the centre of Rotherham is the Interchange, a modern glass concourse providing a nexus for the buses, taxis and trains that travel across the town. Rotherham's sex gangs used the Interchange to recruit victims and transport them to waiting clients. According to the Alexis Jay report, which detailed the abuse of 1,400 young girls over 16 years, within the well-lit and sterile corridors of the Interchange, school children "ran a gauntlet" of "drug dealers, addicts and people involved in a range of criminal activity".
***
[One] incident happened unknown to James Cole, who was 19 years old at the time and had just started working at the Interchange as a security officer. The police didn't bother to ask if he had seen anything suspicious the night Emma was first raped, or to tell him to be on the look out in future.

But by 2005, Cole was well aware that there was something darkly disturbing taking place around the town centre - in the bus station, market place and deserted alleyways. He saw that "Asian lads were taking advantage - using - young teenage girls for sex... I got the impression that they enjoyed terrorising."
***
One day, in November 2010, Cole was reading his local paper, the Doncaster Star, over lunch. There it was - five men had been convicted of child sex exploitation in Rotherham. Cole was shocked. Two of the men named, Umar Razaq and Adil Hussain, had been involved in the incident with Lauren years earlier. Cole said, "I felt physically ill. I went to the toilet and I shit myself ". When he got home he Googled the story. As soon as the images came up, he realised that the men were part of the same gang that had operated a regime of sexual violence in the town centre and who had sold Emma into sexual slavery."

Rochdale:

"Hundreds of young girls were allowed to fall into the hands of Asian grooming gangs because police and social workers may have been scared of seeming racist, an official report says.

They refused to believe that race was an issue even though dozens of young, white girls were being specifically targeted and groomed for sex by older Pakistani men.

Children in the town of Rochdale were let down by all 17 agencies that were meant to protect them, the report said.
***
Experts in child sexual exploitation estimate that between 2003 and 2012 hundreds of young girls slipped through the care net in Rochdale alone."

Derby:

"The ringleaders of a gang which groomed and abused teenage girls in Derby have been given indeterminate jail terms.

Mohammed Liaqat, 28, and Abid Saddique, 27, were found guilty at a trial in November of charges including rape.

At Nottingham Crown Court, Saddique was jailed for at least 11 years and Liaqat for a minimum of eight.
***
There were 26 girls involved in the case, with the youngest 12 and the oldest 18.
***
A report published after the gang was convicted said there were "missed opportunities" by agencies to help the girls."

That's an estimated 2,000 children in only those four reports. It seems weird the reports tend to say "Asian", a description that could theoretically apply to more than 30% of the human race, when the perpetrators turn out to be almost always Pakistani Muslims, which narrows it down to 2%.

Peterborough seems though an exception:

"Peterborough gang guilty of child rapes
***
In Rochdale, Oxford and Derby, we heard horrifying detail about gangs of men grooming girls on the streets, plying them with alcohol and drugs. In those now notorious cases, it was largely Pakistani men involved.

But in Peterborough it was different. The perpetrators were Czech Roma, Slovak Roma and Kurdish and they were shockingly young: the ring leader Zdeno Mirga, known as "Skinny", is now just 18-years-old. Three of the victims, all aged between 12 and 14, were Roma and two were British."

"Two men and three teenage boys were found guilty of a series of rapes and sexual assaults on five girls."

Zacarias Moussaoui refused legal consul and tried defended himself at trial. The judge finally assigned a team of lawyers to defend him. US lawyers, nothing to do with Kahn. Kahn is a British lawyer, he can't defend anyone in a US court. Other than in the blogsphere circular story no one seems to be able to come up with what this alleged "consulting team" was or who was on it. The story that I remember from the time, was Moussaoui asked Kahn to investigate Ahmed. Kahn came over but was never able to meet Moussaoui or see any court papers.

Pretty long stretch of the imagination to connect those dots even for you and the usual suspects.

John Adams defended British soldiers in the Boston Massacre trial.

One of the stranger aspects of the "only liberals are unconstitutional/unpatriotic/un-American" crowd is their consistent discomprehension of how institutions in a democratic society with limited government are supposed to work.

Serving as a lawyer for scumbags is not a failing. It's a noble act, to be respected in any society which favors limited government.

But if you want to lynch people, lawyers and courts just get in the way.
