It seems unlike you to be jumping onboard a racial epithet blythburgh. Sadiq Khan was born in Tooting. The sitcom is set in Birmingham. I don't think the two of them look or sound remotely alike.
It was a play on the constant and nasty "Citizen Khan" references to Mayor Sadiq Khan. i do realise the difference in a real person and one that only exists in the imagination of the scriptwriter and the skill of all those who bring the series to our TV etc screens.
One Khan is a hard working man who can never please everyone and the other Khan is a great sitcom invention
"hard working"???? Where is your evidence for that? He may only just break into a sweat when he does his own self promotion and thats about it!

The only thing you need to know about Mr Khan is that he refused to ban the Burka because 'Women have the right to wear what they want!' (agreed)
But then band lingerie adverts on the underground because he didn't like what they were wearing?
Politically incorrect since 69

"The only thing"???
Just because I'm paranoid, it doesn't mean they're not out to get me

Or because so many women who travel on the underground are complaining about the ads and the reaction they provoke in
some men

London underground, people are packed like sardines, up close and personal. Ladies I know personally had
bad experiences. They were travelling to get to work every single day and just don't have the time to complain to the Police, Transport Police, about the behaviour of some men. It made them feel very uncomfortable the way
some men were behaving,
the comments,
the rubbing past her with a @~*on after looking at the ads.
