Newly elected Muslim Mayor Sadiq Khan endorsed a pledge to fight anti-Semitism in London. The mayor said this in a statement:
“I am proud to sign the Mayors United Against Anti-Semitism pledge and I will encourage other mayors across the country and Europe to do the same, to help send the message far and wide that anti-Semitism is totally unacceptable and can never be justified. Sadly, for many Londoners, anti-Semitism is a very present problem. As a British Muslim, I am no stranger to discrimination and prejudice.”
