England: Sadiq Khan to Ban Junk Food Ads on London’s Public Transport

Dangerous: In a city besieged by acid attacks, homicides, and a knife crime epidemic, one man has the solution to save us all:

Banning junk food advertisements.

That’s right. Further proving that he is the heroic Mayor we need but do not deserve, Sadiq Khan is planning London’s first ever junk food advertisement ban across the entire Transport for London network.

In a bid to tackle the “ticking time bomb” of child obesity, ads for “unhealthy food and drink” will be banned if the proposal is approved. Banned ads will include promotions for food and drinks that are high in fat, salt or sugar. But companies will be able to promote “healthier products within their range, such as salads or bottled water.” This means that whilst McDonald’s wouldn’t be able to promote a Big Mac anymore, they could choose instead to promote their wildly popular salad menu. (Remember, those salads that contain more fat than a Big Mac?)

Khan was heavily criticized, as usual, for the initiative. Piers Morgan condemned the mayor for being “too scared to answer a few tough questions” in regards to the knife crime epidemic London currently faces, insinuating that Kahn refuses to go onto Good Morning Britain when Morgan is presenting for fear that he will be suitably interrogated.  read more

  1. Ali’s…the new London restaurant that is getting rave reviews from the UK’s top restaurant critics.

    The Times Arthur Highbottom wrote: “I just adore Ali’s. It is the only place in all of England where a guest can pick his goat, get to know his goat intimately, watch it being humanely put to sleep, and them dine on it. The Roasted Goat Flank served with figs, dates, pickled goat testes and tabullah is wonderfully delicious. Ali’s is the ultimate of amazing Muslim culinary art in The City. I give it the highest recommendation – Five Crescents”

  2. 20 years ago when Maggie said Tony was working to destroy UK thought it was hyperbole.

    I was wrong! Maggie was smart. Much smarter than I. Tony has in fact achieved his goal. The UK is a “shithole”!

    >khan needs to have his head dunked in a toilet three times and pulled out twice.

    Khan would be saying: What in the name of Allah is this contraption?
