London mayor candidate claims city is unsafe

Laila Cunningham, the Reform UK candidate for Mayor of London, expressed concern over the city’s safety, stating that Londoners are ‘pitied’ by the rest of the UK. At a press conference with Nigel Farage, she emphasized the need for an ‘all-out war on crime’ and criticized current Mayor Sadiq Khan’s perspective on the city’s condition. Despite her claims, crime statistics show a decline in murders and knife crime. Cunningham aims to reform policing to address public safety issues and change perceptions of London.
