After 5 years in the post. What do you think. Good, bad, or indifferent? Mayor Sadiq Khan will choose the successor along with the Home Secretary

Yeah I noticed him on itv earlier. I have to say most of his answers were rather politician-like e.g. Saying that when he had come to office stop & search figures were too high. So he reduced them. But knife crime went down. So they were targetting the right people. It was gangs, but now it's not. Knife crime was reducing when they were locking up the gangs, but now they're being released which is the reason (excuse!) knife crime is rising again. Etc.

Basically he was a bit teflon.

But more importantly, is Amber Rudd a giant?
