  2. Agreed I think most people would. But most shoplifting is being done by crackheads and drunks to sell on

  4. It seems that he is blissfully unaware of the amount of crackheads in his city. It’s mostly nitties and drunks shoplifting to feed their habits, not desperate parents.

  6. Sadiq Khan is disgracefully showing off his wallet-owning priviledges because he hasn’t been the victim of a traumatic Tube pickpocketing and suffered the trauma of a thief taking his wallet and returning it to him with the Oyster card and money still in it.

  7. Yay! Sadiqs going to pay for everyone’s nappy bill. You can spend that money on your favourite drug

  8. Just another example of Sadiq showing off his privilege by not offering to pay the ULEZ fines of everyone in the country whether they live in London or not

    I am very intelligent

  9. Looking forward to Susan Hall’s response to the same question, presumably it would be to undertake a citizens arrest just to be contrary to Khan.

  10. He is so full of fucking shit! More so than the nappies!

  11. I’m going to hunt him down, then watch him watch me steal and walks out, so he knows he’s paying for me.

  12. Have to say, I like it when the crackheads come in the pub with designer gear to sell.

    But not nappies, I don’t need to buy nappies now my kids are older.

  15. So the question is phrased to make it seem like it’s some struggling mother shoplifting for necessity. But having worked retail, it’s crackheads stealing high value, easy to sell items, which includes nappies.

    Fuck off am I ever taking sympathy on crackheads anymore.

  17. The moment you take your wallet out someone would grab it and run away. Might or might not be on a bike.

  18. Ah, election season. That magical time of year when politicians pretend to be nice people.

  19. I would laugh my ass off if a shop owner creates a TikTok of themselves loading up a cage of nappies , watching some actors  wheel it out the door, and asking Khan to pay for it. 

  20. You don’t solve issues like that by reacting to individual events. You tackle the root cause.

    You certainly don’t solve it by bragging about the fact you don’t face the same problems.
