Sadiq Khan, the First Muslim Mayor of London, Creates Commission to Review London Monuments for Diversity Appropriateness

Posted on 24 June 2020

Sadiq Khan is a far left radical politician and the first Muslim Mayor of London.

Earlier this week Sadiq Khan announced he is putting together a review of the beautiful and historical monuments in London.

The far left Independent website reported earlier this month reported that the Mayor of London believes now is the time to review the beautiful and historical monuments in London to determine their compliance with the current far-left diversity mindset:

Sadiq Khan has announced a commission to review statues, plaques and street names in London to ensure landmarks in the capital “suitably reflect London’s achievements and diversity”.

The announcement comes after a statue of 17th-century slave trader Edward Colston was pulled down by Black Lives Matter protesters in Bristol at the weekend. The bronze monument was then pushed into the Bristol Harbour.

The London mayor said the new Commission for Diversity in the Public Realm will focus on “increasing representation among Black, Asian and Minority Ethnic (Bame) communities, women, the LGBT+ community and disability groups”.

He also said a national slavery memorial and a national Sikh war memorial should be erected in London.

The Muslim Mayor commented on concerns about Winston Churchill while comparing him to Malcolm X:

When asked if he would consider taking down a statue of Winston Churchill which had the word “racist” sprayed on it during protests last weekend, Mr Khan said: “No – nobody’s perfect, whether it’s Churchill, whether it’s Gandhi, whether it’s Malcolm X.”

“There’s a conversation to be had about the national curriculum properly teaches our children about people’s warts and all, and some of the things they’ve done we don’t approve of. But there are some statues that are quite clear cut – slavers, quite clear cut in my view.”

It looks like this movement to destroy the West has hit the British shores as well.
