Kigali is safer than London 09:39 - Apr 22 with 887 viewsElderGrizzly

Is the latest Tory bile ahead of the London Mayoral election and the latest vote on the Rwanda bill

"It is a safe country and indeed, if you look at the statistics, Kigali is arguably safer than London. So I have no doubt at all about the safety of Rwanda and the efficacy of this scheme" - Andrew Mitchell this morning.

He's got a point

No Tory politician is being called a liar, cheat, fraudster, boozer, philanderer etc. in Kigali.

Don't believe a word I say. I'm only kidding. Or am I?

And of course Andrew Mitchell forgot to mention his £35k in consultancy fees from the Rwandan Government...

it probably falls under irrelevant but true. the objections to the rwanda scheme aren't to do with street crime.

And so as the loose-bowelled pigeon of time swoops low over the unsuspecting tourist of destiny, and the flatulent skunk of fate wanders into the air-conditioning system of eternity, I notice it's the end of the show

Only 38% feeling safe to walk alone at night in London is a damning indictment

Can you name any city in the world with a population over 5 million where you would feel safe walking alone at night?

Soldiers are known for shooting protestors in Kigali, so i'd argue it's probably not entirely true. Although if Braverman had her way me might have had that here.

Different crime etc and perceived threats, but it was a political dog-whistle from Mitchell in the build up to the Mayoral election next week while sucking up to (both) his paymasters

Agree. There are a couple of others I could add to those two but none of them are in Europe or the Americas. A damning indictment indeed.
