Well you'd think with that recent £15m in the bank from their racist they would be able to afford better social media people than this.
One of those clips is from Penn Station in New York, they've had to rather embarrassingly admit to it and remove said clip.Well you'd think with that recent £15m in the bank from their racist they would be able to afford better social media people than this.

Sadiq unleashes more terror on London
If their media team reflect the quality of candidate they have put up for the forthcoming mayoral election it goes some way to explaining away this horrendous gaffe.They will be furious when they realise who's been in charge for 14 years

Safest Cities in the World 2024
Whether travelling abroad or starting a new life in a new country, finding a safe and secure destination helps relieve any stress or uncertainty. The level of safety and security, of course, varies from country to country and city to city.
To measure a country’s safety, the Global Peace Index is used. To measure a city’s safety, the Economist Intelligence Unit’s Safe Cities Index (SCI) is used. The SCI ranked 60 destinations around the world across 57 indicators covering their digital security, health security, infrastructure, and personal safety. Based on this, cities are given a score between 0 and 100.
This report is important because 56% of humans live in cities. By 2050, it is estimated that 68% of people will live in cities. Growth of cities will be inevitable over the years, and urban management will be essential in defining the quality of life for the increasing population of humanity living in cities.
An important factor in successful urban management is the city’s ability to provide a safe and secure environment for its residents, businesses, and visitors.
The ten safest cities in the world are:
According to the SCI, Tokyo, Japan is the safest city in the world with a score of 92. Following closely is Singapore with a score of 91.5 and Osaka with a score of 90.9. Singapore ranked first in infrastructure security and personal security, while Tokyo ranked first for digital security and Osaka ranked first for health security.
- Tokyo, Japan (92.0)
- Singapore (91.5)
- Osaka, Japan (90.9)
- Amsterdam, The Netherlands (88.0)
- Sydney, Australia (87.9)
- Toronto, Canada (87.8)
- Washington, D.C., United States (87.6)
- Copenhagen, Denmark (87.4)
- Seoul, South Korea (87.4)
- Melbourne, Australia (87.3)
Asia-Pacific cities make up six of the top ten safest countries on the list; however, a city’s geographic region does not have a statistical link with its safety and security. Tokyo, Singapore, and Osaka lead in safety not because they are in Asia, but because of their individual strengths in each of the categories.
There is, however, a correlation between high income and a safer city. Those cities with higher average incomes reflected that wealth through investment in better healthcare systems and quality infrastructure. Cities at the bottom of the list tend to be located in developing nations. Additionally, there is a correlation between fair, accountable governments
The SCI results are not evenly distributed, with a large number of cities clustered at the top score, meaning that the top cities are more similar to one another than to those ranked lower. The top 24 safest cities are separated by only 10 points.
At the bottom of the list are Lagos in Nigeria, Caracas in Venezuela, Yangon in Myanmar, Karachi in Pakistan, and Dhaka in Bangladesh.

No chance London is the safest city in the UK.
I'd query some of the US cities too.
Obviously its results based on certain criteria, but not sure their methodology gives results that meet my definition of "safest".
For example I'm not sure any city where any lunatic can own a gun (and many do) should be high up on that list.
If Washington DC is number 7 then either things have improved or the ratings are pretty meaningless. Working there once and checking into the hotel (quite posh), the reception spiel - breakfast is served at, elevators are over there, etc. - included the somewhat disconcerting injunction 'when you leave the hotel, turn left, never turn right. Turn left, never turn right.'No chance London is the safest city in the UK.

LA is pretty rough too. Plenty of no go zones due to gangs etc.If Washington DC is number 7 then either things have improved or the ratings are pretty meaningless.
