Inflatable Sadiq In A Bikini Will Fly Over Parliament On Saturday

I remember seeing posts about the Boris balloon claiming it was proof that the left shouldn't be in charge of the economy if they spend tens of thousands on a balloon

It’s so intellectually inconsistent - surely your (theirs not yours !) whole fucking worldview is that consumers should spend money on anything ?

Though I suspect looking for any sort of intellect isn’t the right approach here

We’re not going to have every cunt with a kickstarter sending balloons over London now are we? This was my main problem with the Trump one.

It'll look like WW2 all over again.

But, I am struggling with what the original protest point was, is it just because he has brown skin?

Montgolfier of a Black Planet?

 

[Supine]

Whip round for an Editor balloon anyone?

It would need a fridge magnet attached, covering his bits.

See also free speech but only if you're chatting shit about Muslims, and hang the paedos except for my mate Nigel because that was all just a misunderstanding.

If this is the best the far right have to offer I think we are pretty safe tbh

OK I get why the bikini has been introduced, because of his efforts to ban sexist adverts on London's public transport.

But, I am struggling with what the original protest point was, is it just because he has brown skin?

oh dear still playing that old chestnut are we

 

[Nylock]

Do one.

 

[Treacle Toes]

oh dear still playing that old chestnut are we

Which old chestnut is that then?

 

[cupid_stunt]

oh dear still playing that old chestnut are we

Err?

I think he is spot on.

The racists don’t like a brown man in charge.

Why do you think it's belong flown, billbond?

FWIW, from Matthew Butcher's opinion piece in the Metro:

 

[cupid_stunt]

What a charming lot.

 

[littlebabyjesus]

Bizarre, but perhaps not unsurprising, lack of awareness from the racists here. Putting him in that bikini simply gives the opportunity to show that vile advert again and remind people how vile it is and why it was taken down. It appears they don't even understand the fat-shaming message of that advert. Someone probably needs to have quiet word, but meantime, let them crack on I guess. Khan's reaction to it was the right one, and predictable, I would have thought from a relatively astute politician who promotes himself as a secular Muslim, but presumably not the one they were expecting, again showing their lack of awareness.

 

[Dogsauce]

I think they were really hoping it would be banned, so they could play the victim and whine about free speech. It’s what their game is these days.

This is funny http://editor.newsthump.com/why-the...ing-but-a-spectacular-display-of-self-owning/

Serious editorial from newsthump

 

[FridgeMagnet]

I mean everyone involved in this is fucking scum. That's undeniable. I wouldn't want to detract from that by making a "balloons are generally irritating and once you let one in you're going to have to allow the rest of the unfunny things" point.

 

[Toast Rider]

Clearly motivated by racism.

What a charming lot.

Round them up give them a pick axe each and send then down the tunnels to dig the missing bits of Crossrail.

 

[brogdale]

Riud them up give them a pick axe each and send then down the tunnels to dig the missing bits of Crossrail.

That'll be the bit that serves the public transport 'desert'(s) of South London.

 

[tim]

Send the Rev. Richard Coles down to dig Crossrail too.

 

[brogdale]

Send the Rev. Richard Coles down to dig Crossrail too.

This sounds like the new version of Pickman's model one-way work visa for the South Sandwich islands!

Why, what’s he said? I was listening to that five minutes ago. Although if it’s just because he smug, fair enough.

Part of crossrail involves the subterranean crucifixion of prominent Christians, including coles and "sir" cliff richard before trains start running. The delay to its opening due to a larger number of people to be crucified than anticipated.
