A black cab driver named Gary has issued a personal challenge to Sadiq Khan amid growing concerns over the breakdown of law and order in London. Gary the cabbie dared the London Mayor to join him on a ride one night in London. This comes after chaos ran rampant on Oxford Street on Wednesday when hundreds of teenagers descended on central London.<\/p>\n
The teens, inspired by a challenge on the social media app TikTok, ransacked the world-famous shopping street.<\/p>\n
A video on the social media app went viral after calling for a JD Sports shop to be looted.<\/p>\n
Clips from the scene showed baton-wielding police clashing with dozens of people while officers on horseback dispersed crowds.<\/p>\n
Speaking to Lee Anderson, the Deputy Chairman of the Conservative Party, on GB News, Gary bemoaned the decline of London.<\/p>\n

I won’t put the meter on.”<\/p>\n Gary continued: “I will pick him up after midnight and I will take him around the London that he is in charge of, and show how it has become a lawless London.<\/p>\n “The once great city of London is now lawless.”<\/p>\n Turning to the chaos seen on Oxford Street this week, Gary complained that Mr Khan had a 24-hour warning and did not deal with it properly.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.

They ran riot along Oxford and Regent Street. He put his officers at risk.”<\/p>\n Prior to the criminal chaos, Mr Khan had urged people who had seen the videos on social media not to go to Oxford Street.<\/p>\n He warned young Londoners: “Do not allow yourself to be sucked into an area that could be a high-crime area.”<\/p>\n Posts online promoting an organised \u201crobbery\u201d, with a date, time and dress code, were captioned: \u201cDon\u2019t come if you can\u2019t run.\u201d<\/p>\n People were urged to wear balaclavas and gloves but not bring weapons.<\/p>\n Don’t miss… <\/strong> <\/p>\n In the end, the Metropolitan Police arrested nine people and issued 34 dispersal orders<\/p>\n Home Secretary Suella Braverman has since demanded that the ringleaders behind the plan be \u201chunted down and locked up\u201d.<\/p>\n She warned that the UK cannot be allowed to plunge into the \u201clawlessness\u201d seen in some American cities.<\/p>\n Mr Khan said the scenes were \u201ccompletely unacceptable\u201d and that \u201cpolice investigations continue\u201d.<\/p>\nOxford Street: Police on scene as planned disorder strikes<\/h3>\n
