why ever not starts 9:30AM Saturday [Almost £60,000 has been raised for an enormous blimp of Sadiq Khan to fly over London in a bid to oust the mayor from office. It comes a month after a similarly huge balloon depicting a spray-tanned Donald Trump in a nappy with a smartphone soared above the capital during his first presidential trip to the UK.] [Now, protesters on the other side of the ongoing row between the two politicians have plans in place to hit back.] Last edited by arista; 30-08-2018 at 06:26 PM. |

I dont agree with this either, but Khan has set the precedent so can hardly complain

Why is he in a bikini? Where's the joke in It?
Like with Trump... there was a connection to the baby out fit... it wasn't done just because. People identified Trump as a big baby? Is your London mayor connected to this bikini somehow?

POW! BLAM!
|
I'm guessing the "joke" is that he banned bikini posters on the underground...? Or maybe I'm giving them too much credit, and it's literally just "lol a man in a bikini"
Either way, wouldn't he have to approve its flight anyway? |

I'm guessing he could. He won't win over anyone who is pushing for the balloon of him anyways... and I doubt he'd lose any votes from those who protested Trump.
This middle ground stuff looks weak... and that is what makes politicians lose their positions

As silly and childish as the Trump one and what a waste of money. It would have been better donated to charity.

To show the mayor how silly blimps are, they’ve made a blimp?
