Good news for discouraged San Franciscans and other Yanks


London has elected a new mayor, a Muslim of South Asian origin from the Labour Party. He states his priorities:

[Saddiq] Khan had said he would make solving London’s housing crisis a key priority, and place a freeze on public transport fares for four years.

He said he would set a target that half of all new homes should be “genuinely affordable” and promised to boost landlord licensing, as well as name and shame rogue landlords.

The Conservative campaign against Khan tried to make him out to be a Muslim extremist, unsurprisingly.

Don't know if he can deliver anything, but it is always good to see the voters get tired of the hate.
