Anti-white racist, Sadiq Khan ,the mayor of London demonstrates what a hypocrite he is by getting United Airlines to pay for jetting about the US in 2022 to “promote London” - carbon skid mark evident

From here:

“Look at you, now look at me” combined with “How do you like that” springs to mind.

Per the article:

“.. fresh details emerged of the agreement made between the mayor’s office and United Airlines, which allowed Mr Khan, his team and a group of journalists to travel on the cheap.”

Well travel “on the cheap” is an understatement. The “party” got free flights.

“But critics have raised questions about the fact that flights for the entire party were provided free by United Airlines, with only fees and taxes payable, and whether anything was given by City Hall in exchange.”

Quid pro quo?

“A line was also inserted into City Hall’s press release about the trip, which read: "United Airlines is proud to be flying the Mayor of London Sadiq Khan and his team on their trade mission to the United States. United Airlines is set to operate 22 flights per day from London Heathrow to the United States for Summer 2022."

Nothing to see there of course. Probably been in negotiations for over a year prior to the deal – in the middle of the scamdemic, lockdowns, injection mandates and talk of digital passports, right?

Just how many free flights were taken by how many people and in what class, in exchange for what exactly?

Well business class of course for such important, elite types of people.

“A document seen by the Standard shows how City Hall agreed that in exchange for the flights - which were mostly in business class - the airline could receive several "promotional opportunities".

Promotional opportunities? What like displacing advertising space taken by other airlines?

“Ms Russell told the Standard: "The office of the Mayor of London should not be for sale – yet, United Airlines secured free publicity and final sign-off of mayoral materials in exchange for business class flights to the United States.”

Okay, so a bunch of domestic flights PLUS business class flights to and from the US! Not bad.

Enquiring minds want to know what the carbon footprint was for the junket and whether the mayor has “carbon offsets” via some other grifting scheme with his buddies.

Of course, Londoners will have paid for meals, accommodation, transit and “room service”,. Well one would hope!

News outlets joined in the with the grift:

“..enabled City Hall to invite journalists, including from the Standard, BBC, ITV and other outlets, to join and report on the trip without those organisations having to pay air fares.”

Sadiq Khan in the USA: London's mayor sticks to script - BBC News

“Sadiq Khan's business-class flight touched down at Heathrow on Friday morning as his five-day trip of the USA came to an end. During the jaunt, aimed at boosting London's tourist industry, the city's mayor went on a walkabout in New York City, pressed the flesh in Los Angeles and even visited a cannabis dispensary on America's west coast.”

Such a joke.

Who in those cities who hasn’t already flown to London, knows who the hell Sadiq Khan is and would be persuaded to change any plans not already made, to fly to London because some grader walks around a few streets?

London – NY return flights cost around 6,000 bucks each for Khan’s team of what 4 bag carriers? Leave aside  the bribes paid by United to the cringe worthy reporters, we already know their quality, United paid 30,000 bucks for the international flights.

Did United throw anyone off Business Clas - the seats could not be filled with the dead weight of Khan and his team of porters anyway – how do the United  shareholders feel about that?

Multiple domestic flights probably cost the same as the  return international flight.

60,000 bucks of grift between two players using the Pfizer business model.

“Mr Khan managed to avoid saying anything that piqued the interest of the press entourage, although as he mingled with LA's finest on a rooftop in West Hollywood, one of London's most famous exports James Corden did gently mock him for his repetitive remarks.”

Lastly, check out the “stop picking on Khan, pity him” tactic used by one of his bag carriers lifted from the MSN article at the top.

“A spokesman for Mr Khan said: "Promoting London at home and abroad is a key part of the mayoralty and Sadiq makes no apologies for travelling to the US last year and saving taxpayers money on the flights.”

From 3 months ago, September 2023. Just a year later. I wonder if he got free flights from the WHO or another airline? This looks like it will turn into an annual junket.

“A spokesperson for City Hall said that the trip will also be a chance to encourage more Americans to visit the capital this autumn.”

Yeah, right. Khan will have put off anyone who may have come to London with the 2022 jaunt. People everywhere read about his views on the Net Zero lunacy and the taxes he imposes on the poor for zero change via the Ultra Low Emission Zone.

He would stand more chance attracting visitors from the major cities of amongst the wealthier residents of major African cities like Mombasa, or Nairobi or Maputo – but of course, because he a gritting bigot, the thought would not have crossed his mind. Probably because the wealthier residents of those Africa cities would likely throw him of the top of a tall building for taking away their healthy food and cheap fuel.
