Americans will react with shock when they find out the new Mayor of London is a Muslim who called moderate Muslims ‘Uncle Toms’.
Sadiq Khan also consulted to 9/11 bomber Zacarias Moussaoui. His detractors point out every villain is entitled to a defence – and so he is – but why choose to go the states for such a client?

Sadiq’s racist description of moderate Muslims suggests to many that there was more behind that choice – like sympathy to Islamists – than purely legal career choices.
New Yorkers will be utterly dismayed to see American-born Boris Johnson, a fan of the States and the Special Relationship, turfed out for such a man.
Sadiq Khan was in the House of Commons, the UK Parliament, when videoed saying: “You can’t just pick and choose who you speak to. You can’t just talk to Uncle Toms.”
In a pathetic apology, Khan’s team said only that he “regrets” using the racist phrase.
Khan is miles ahead in the polls and will almost certainly be officially declared the Mayor of London later tonight when voting closes in London at 5pm Eastern.
