Jenrick’s video on the Underground has accrued 14.7 million views on X alone. The left continues to rage over it mainly by accusing Jenrick of being an attention-seeker. Ever heard of politics…

London mayor Sadiq Khan has issued a tantrum response towards the shadow justice secretary this afternoon on Times Radio:

“Fare evasion is an issue. It’s an issue for London, has been for some time and that’s one of the reasons why we’ve invested hugely in terms of not just enforcement officers, not just in terms of body-worn videos, not just in terms of CCTV, but invested in the police as well. What I find ironic, and it’s an example of the chutzpah of Mr Ozempic, is that he was in government when the government cut more than a billion pounds from their police budget. He was in government when the government removed Transport for London’s operating grant, and now he’s criticising the consequences of the cuts in policing and TfL made by his government. Where was he in 2010, 2024 when those cuts were being made in our policing? Where was he in 2015 when the government cut their operating grant to TfL?”

Guido remembers Khan whingeing about Trump giving him a nickname: “I’m a bit surprised that the President of the USA would, frankly speaking, behave like an 11-year-old and resort to name calling.” Rattled?

UPDATE: Tory Susan Hall AM told Guido:

“It’s relieving to hear Sir Sadiq suddenly discover how devastating police cuts are, considering that up to 1700 officers in London face the chop because he and this disastrous Labour Government refuse to make up the gap in police funding. Perhaps if the Mayor stopped calling a member of the King’s Privy Council childish names and focussed on the issue at hand, we could actually solve antisocial behaviour in the capital.”
