Britain first candidate sulking off after being beaten by a bin is hilarious
Bin for the Win
Stormed off like a stroppy little child
He was probely upset with the mockery Khan has made of the election & Piss off with the diabolical turn out of indigenous Londoners that’s the only reason Khan has got back in simple 🤷🏻♂️
@@TheVicar acting as expected
@@tonymcfeisty2478 Its as if they can't accept reality when it slaps them in the face
Next time Count Binface, Next time.
❤️💪
💪🏽♥️
Democracy at work. Let's pack the unelected Sunak out of Number 10.
To be replaced with another talentless prat
and you clearly don't know how our democracy works we have never elected a leader we elect a party and the party chooses their leader
@@micky1up you are absolutely right !! Let's pack the useless, corrupt, Tory party out of number 10
The majority of Londoners didn't vote and the majority of those that did, didn't vote for Khan. Democracy not working.
@@Bcx12 Lol
Susan Hall looks soooo pissed off in the back... Even the prime minister didn't vote for her 😅
What did Susan expect? When all her Tory members got a proper election trashing now she was added to the list. Join the club, Susan.
Bin face 24,260 - 20,590 Britain first Britain first lost to a Bin and he walked off. 🤣🤣🤣
I have obviously been receiving news from the wrong sources; I thought that Khan was a terrible Mayor who couldn't possibly win again.
This is what happens when only a 3rd of the electorate vote.
I am a Tory but voted for khan because I don’t approve negative politics promoted by Susan hall conservative candidate.
@@MichaelWilliams-mo1vvif people were so unhappy they would have come out and voted for Susan , they didn’t. Now get over it . Populism defeated
@@lbcthinkingoutloud3427 When your part of London becomes Muslim with mosques, and their food outlets & your daughter is frightened to walk to a tube station to go to work perhaps you will reconsider that comment Mr LBC.
@@lbcthinkingoutloud3427 there was others lame excuse
People out of London commenting how this guy got votes- if you speak to the people in London then you would know he was always going to win
Yep really londoners want Khan to win. The racists who didn't want Khan to win live outside London
At least Khan is elected three times, well, for Sunak, he will never be elected by the British people.
I love the sheer applause Count Binface got, Bin for the Win
I'm glad we don't have a Tory mayor. I remember BoJo's failed vanity projects that wasted £940m of taxpayers money. The Garden Bridge was scrapped, the purchase of water cannons; the Thames estuary airport...etc! He was totally irresponsible with public money.
What's khant done with all the money then
@@lindalewis5787 ask your precious tory government.

In a very deep way
UK is just fine, thanks. And if you don't like it, why don't you go live in one of the other 28 countries in the EU, oh wait, you voted to make it so you can't do that either...
... thanks to 14 years of Tory austerity, lies, deceit, corruption, fascism, racism & Brex&hit!
@@BIG-EDS Why? What will suddenly change?
@@BIG-EDSdelusional clown 🤡
The conservative candidate (Susan Hall) for mayor was the wrong choice. Earlier in the year or last year, she claimed to have been pick-pocketed on the Tube only for her purse to be returned to her with its contents intact. Rather than admit she may have misplaced it or it could have could have fallen out of her coat, she maintained that it was stolen??? The thief must be commended for not taking anything from her purse. From this, I concluded she lacked credibility, competence, and capacity to be Mayor of London. Congratulations to Sadiq Khan.
Let's hope that the BBC is not taken at face value by the voting public and that despicable attitudes are seen through for what they are more often, especially around the soon to come General Election.....Yes, congratulations Sadiq Khan.
So you base her credability on what you think may have happened in your guesswork!!! No wonder this country is in trouble with illogical irrational conclusions which lack credibility, facts and this forms your judgements on a person as a whole.
Khan won
Get over it
@jacquiaba9132 Find and listen to the interview (on LBC) and draw your own conclusions.
@@jacquiaba9132the Tory woman the worst candidate I have ever seen. She is a racist
It looks like a bulldog chewing a wasp behind Mr Khan.🤣
Right wing nutters always look like this
Brilliant! Count Binface beat nasty Britain First and Brian Rose & London Peel Grifter Party! 🤣
I voted for the man. Not sure why people hate him
Free school meals and we really are happy with the drop in pollution honestly, its been good, just because hes pakistani doesnt mean we vote for hate.
He is the thing for you haters. We either do something about climate change and pollution or we party like it’s 1999. Take your pick
I want a Mayor who listens to the people, reduces the Council Tax, instead of increasing it, abolishes ULEZ. Why won't he invite members of the public to meetings and listen to the people??
because he doesn't want to answer to anybody.
You are a mere annoyance to his Empire building.
Like most politicians he believes the working class are beneath him.
I really wish so but he doesn’t care
you don't want clean air ? why ever not? The Tories in Northamptonshire tried to keep a lid on the Council tax - to make themselves popular with all the shire tories- the result was a massive and dangerous cut in social services - and bankruptcy !!
Uber Eats employees have voted
😂😂
How the hell has he won again?
The Tories got it wrong again...Sean Baily done better than Zac Goldsmith and Hall, and only lost by a few thousand votes last time, yet somehow he has been sent to early retirement in the House of Lords. I supposed being called Lord Paddington, instead of Mayor of London is a consolation?? Make it make sense London!
Londoners have only themselves to blame
He only won because of all the Muslims in London it's a Muslim state now..
The city has been overrun; keep up; there are very few real Londoners left 🤔
Grahamjesty....Londoners? What Londoners? Anytime I visit London these days I only ever hear foreign accents !
I also blame these other groups that diverted her vote.
There isn’t enough Londoners well real ones anyway open ya eyes u can see we r being pushed out
Bet half the people here saying London is done etc, don't even live in London. He's been a good Mayor and that's why we all vote for him. People like to blame everything on him.
lets be also honest that the voters got one look at Susan Hall and realised she was a grade A loon
😂😂
Really you nearly as good a liar as him
You have low standards:
1) He's failed to sack the senior police officers who are guilty of misconduct with their failure to respect their mandate to enforce the law properly (Ignoring crime / Making up the law / Failing to remain politically neutral).
2) Crime levels. Violent crime, sexual offences etc.
3) Failure to stop anti-Semitic marches. The Palestinians elected Hamas whose charter declares to eradicate Israel. That would suggest that a large number of Palestinians aren't peace loving. To suggest that the protestors supporting them are overwhelmingly peaceful doesn't make sense.
4) He's damaged the livelihood of people who run small businesses with ULEZ.
5) He repeatedly makes defamatory statements against anyone who disagrees with him. He accuses opponents of Islamophobia or racism simply if they disagree with him. He called ULEZ protestors nazis & anti-vaxxers.
6) Wasting large sums of money. E.g. On cultural things.
7) Failure to build enough affordable housing.
😂🤣😂🤣😂 good mayor 🤣😂🤣 comedy gold 🤣😂🤣
40% turn out nothing will ever change!!
Yes thats a worry !!
The look of anger on the face of the Tory candidate while Sadiq is speaking is priceless
One day, it'll be your turn to have a face full.of anger
@@commandingjudgedredd1841 This just in!! Humans will feel emotions at some point in their lives!
I despise the tories, they deserve 0 seats,
but to gloat about the capital of England being the knife crime capital of the world, run by a pakisani is going to come back and bite you sooner than you think.
The English didn't vote for this.
dont worry london will be african country
Ofcourse they hate each other coz they are both rubbished!!
London stabs itself in the foot once again
But it was not just London that voted the Tories back into power in 2010.
Because they aren't all racists? Well, it's an opinion I guess.
Since your preferred candidate clearly lost, I think you will find you are in the minority with that opinion...
Boycott corner shops pass it on.
@@mobsiesixsixsix9785 Well they're most POC and are very Anti white and also anti anything British so aren't they...? You sure about that..?
Their are so many knives in London and he does nothing about them he would rather collect money and make people unhappy, I am disappointed because people want to come in to London but don't because of the charges and knife crime
I knew the commenters here would be desperately upset lol
Beautiful, isn't it?

It is indeed art to read angry bigots seeth and huff that copium 😅

I have never met even one person who likes khan, who has completely destroyed London. How on earth he got in when no-one likes him is a total mystery to me.
Oh dear,cant you cope with a Muslim being incharge of London.He's the boss now for the next 4 years so get behind him or suffer.

I counted 6 people clapping
This man is a Joke. London is finished and no one is Listening to Politicians anymore!
Except of course the million plus londoners who voted for him. Literally nobody!
Why don’t you stand next time
Except those we don’t want in power… they go out to vote on mass! Which is why he won!

Not Again....Come on .....No Way....fixed
Poor baby!
So who was it who said 'Bull***t' 30 seconds into the victory speech then?
Chuck him out I've got no confidence with him and labour vote for reform
Susan Hall, in those few words, demonstrated completely, why she is unfit for public office. As for the other idiot who left the stage shouting insults, well - once again, actions speak louder. Shameful behaviour. He and Hall are like a couple of spoiled brats who didn't get their on way in the sweet shop. At least Khan was the adult in the room.
Also bear in mind that idiot was outvoted by Count Binface. Really says something about Britain First and their "support"
No, Khan was always going to win because it's rigged that way.
Give me strength!
@@therealpollyanna5846rigged how? the Tories changed the voting system to first past the post to give their candidate a better chance.
@@NeilUpfold I don't trust Tories either.
What a fix.....
I tell everyone not to visit London because its not an english city anymore. Best to not give it any tourism revenue.
If we had STV Count Binface would’ve done so much better.
R.I.P. LONDON R.I.P BRITAIN
Beep! Melodramatic righty alert.
Diva, so dramatic 😂
Who would be stupid enough to vote for him, I don't know anyone who would.
A lot like him literally
The ever changing British Majority .
Over a million people voted for him! Just goes to show London respects his work and values only racist vote for Susan
People who aren't racist
It make shock you to learn but we already know that. Shallow people only have shallow friends my dear.
All this faux shock at Khan getting reelected… the tories fielded a joke bureaucrat candidate better suited to a suburban town hall than running a major city. They have a bizarre indifference to Londoners and the level of inept decision making or lack of strategy is astounding.
Perfect example of the complacency and complete irresponsibility of the Conservative party and Conservative party thinking .
GOD SAVE UK >>>AMEN
I'm off to the Highlands 👋🏴
Bye
Oh good. One less bellend to worry about

Not as beautiful as seeing those poor,old,former motorists,some Pensioners, pushed onto ,almost, non existent Public Transport in OUTER South East London, where there are no tubes either.You should see their bedraggled, miserable, wet faces forced(like in my road) to do 30 minute return walks just to get to the nearest bus stop.
I drive by playing my music, with my choice of fellow passengers, in the warm ,dry and in comfort.. Imagine is Sad IQ was a Labour politician looking after poorer, more vulnerable people. Oh! It says he is !! LOL

How come he won very strange
Stop drinking beer and get up your backside otherwise London will be --- .
He's the duly elected Mayor of London. Sod off if you don't like it!

How on earth has this man won, no one apart from muslims (no disrespect intended) voted for him. What has happened ???
And how do you know that? I voted for him and I am not Muslim
Maybe because he is a decent mayor.
every single person i have talked to about this election said they were going to vote for khan, most of them not muslim. hes the best of the selection by far.
We didn't receive vote paper my sun and my husband

To be fair it is a good bin though
Yeah that was the best moment 😂😂

absolutely…the racism is tangible
Just right. We're just right, not far right Mr Lefty.

@@susan9188 I should have used the term fascist really.
To all those who don't like him and didn't bother to vote in the election. You got exactly what you deserve. Should have woke up and went to vote if you didn't want him as your mayor.
You're missing the point of not voting. The right let him win on purpose.
votes dont count for anything. Its all an illusion to make us think our vote counts.
What a sour concession speech by Susan Hall ... 🍋
She is horrid
No one is to blame except WEF if you think this isn’t rigged then they is no hope for you.
are you offering that in place of a coherent point ?
Lots of tin foil mad hatters commenting. This one, so Trumptillian.

It wasn't rigged, it's just that native Brits are a minority in London at this point and many of them are super woke.

Lets be perfectly honest, the reason he won is because genuine English people are now the minority in London. 😢
Let’s be honest, you sound bitter, racist and xenophobic.
Even the ethics hate him too
Source ?
White people make up around 40 - 50% of london with the rest being non white. Depends on what you mean by "genuine English people", maybe it's twisted subjective understanding of what a white english person is like.
I do not know any English person who voted for anyone but Khan (well, one lad voted for Binface for giggles). But my social circle is made of professionals, scientists, engineers, doctors, not of the gammon trash down the pub.
He's a Lawyer by profession and his professionalism is envied by the clowns like Susan Hall.

I am very disappointed that SadIQ is somehow re-elected as mayor of London. Any other candidate would have been better in my opinion. He seems to be destroying London in many ways to rebuild it as an islamic stronghold. And he seems to be lining his pockets, by who???
You criticize him, but not the Tories who have refused to properly fund the police in London for many years, which has led to an increase in knife crime!
