London’s Muslim Mayor Green-Lights Muslim-Owned Taxi Service That Could Destroy the City’s Traditional Black Cabs

Dec 1, 2018 9:26 am By Joshua Winston

The black cab is every bit as familiar a sight in London as the red telephone box. It’s one of the things that make London unique, and is one of the things that tourists expect to see when coming here. Sadiq Khan, as London mayor, has a large say in what happens with Transport For London (TfL). He agreed with the removal of body-positive images of women in bikinis, and was quite vocal about why these images should be taken down from the underground adverts in his first days of office — in case they shamed fat people who have no control over their dietary impulses. Now he is happy that TfL is no longer dominated by white males, and he has made sure that people of colour make up the majority of the TfL voting bloc. Why he thinks skin tone or gender are transferable skills is beyond me. Uber cabs are already killing the black cab trade in London by illegally picking up people on the streets, and undercutting them on prices. Only black cabs are allowed to be flagged down by pedestrians; Uber is supposed to be by appointment only, and yet they sit on the sidewalks waiting to illegally pick up trade, like prostitutes.

Now Sadiq Khan has give the green light for Nohman Ahmed to set up a taxi service that will not only further undercut the traditional black cab service in London, but will also undercut Uber. Ahmed promises the surprise of your life, with Lamborghinis being one of the vehicles that might pick you up, and they will charge you only £5 for the privilege of escorting you around zone 1 in London with your 100th purchase. One of the selling points is that you can feel like Saudi Billionaire Turki Bin Abdullah.

The left are moaning about a ‘living wage,’ and Sadiq Khan is getting behind an organisation run by Ahmed that is virtually giving their wares away for free. How can the traditional London black cab compete with this? This is all reminiscent of Lutfur Rahman, the corrupt Tower Hamlets Muslim MP who was doing illegal deals with fellow Bangladeshis.

My friend is a black cab driver, and she has seen her income deteriorate with the rise of Uber. Now, with Khan giving the green light to Ahmed, she will see her salary reduced even more. It is illegal for Uber drivers to pick people up on the street, randomly, without prior booking, and yet they do. London hot spots are littered with Uber drivers. Further, my friend, the black cab driver, had to spend three years studying the London roads and answering multiple theory questions, at the expense of £10,000. Her studying comprised of learning the streets of London like the back of her hand (four hours on a bike each day to familiarize herself with the streets, two hours each day learning road names, a further two doing map testing, and two hours revision and preparation for the next day). She learned a craft that Khan is taking away from her. Nowadays, with sat-nav being available to all road users, my friend feels that her time spent studying was a waste, given the fact that people can get away with driving passengers around using electronic devices whilst speaking very little English.

A different organisation applied last year to TfL in order to have their cars and services rival Uber in London, but their appeal was rejected. Sadiq Khan has supported and defended terrorists throughout his legal career. It appears, now, likewise with Luftur Rahman, that there could possibly be Islamic favouritism occurring. Why would Sadiq Khan want to harm the traditional black cab industry by introducing a service by Ahmed that costs the user essentially pennies, and which will lead to the possible demise of a very English sight and mode of transport – the black cab?

    Essence of spread of Islam lies in the fact that in the developed world the population growth is declining. Once this is taken care of Islam spread can be tackled.

        All potential immigrants should be carefully vetted.
        All countries want and need migrants who have some very special skill which the host nation needs and which is not available locally.
        We want migrants who benefit the nation.

        We also have to be very careful of fake refugees.

        All illegal migrants should be jailed, the deported and banned from entry.

      To favor a race or to discriminate against a race is racism! The belief that a particular race is inherently superior is also racist.
      Mayor Sadiq Khan is discriminating against White (Caucasian) cab drivers. He openly says that he does not want to see the taxi service dominated by Whites.
      He wants people of color (i.e Pakistanis/Arabs) to dominate the taxi service!

      All this is racism!

      So, now Khan is starting to show his true colors.

    This is quite disturbing on many levels! How someone like Kahn got elected is even more disturbing and
    the unfettered power he wields is very destructive to England and its citizens. Kahn is a dangerous anti England one world order phony!! How can parliament and PM May allow this to go unchecked? His actions towards a sitting US president were appalling.
    Sir Winston Churchill is not resting easy today, nor is PM Thatcher. England is all but lost!
    The USA will not save them again!! God save the queen.

        I had to travel to a job in north London via Overground yesterday. I hardly ever do that. I was the only English person on the returning train. English people are getting the hell out of this nasty, filthy, criminal dump as fast as possible, and I’m going to follow them. It’s obvious that Khan, like the rest of his ilk, wants to destroy the place and turn it into a barbaric home-from-home for his ‘sisters and his cousins, unclea and aunts’, where (to quote him) they can enjoy the imported atrocities of a ‘world city’ that they traditionally seem to love to wallow in on a daily basis – whilst also enjoying what’s left of the ever-diminishing remnants of English culture and civility. Perhaps they should move the English Capital to a city somewhere else that’s actually English! The Chinese tourist authorities had the right idea when they advised their clients to give a lot of London a miss.

      Unfortunately, based upon the 2018 midterm results, the USA is now actively following the UK’s path to destruction. As others have noted, how can one person be a clear winner on election day, only to become the loser after “ballot harvesting” two weeks later. And isn’t it funny that the vast majority of the “found” or “harvested” ballots have votes for flaming liberals?

      Once our electoral system is compromised, we are toast.

        When the media reported 100 % of the are counted it can mean out of 3 million voter only 2.8 million where actually count. The GOP in some place in america willnot count all the vote from democrats control area and they hide the ballot. Than honest vote counter will infro the democrats of this so the democrats goto court to ask for a supervision vote count.

        • Carolyne says

          Dec 2, 2018 at 11:43 am

          Sorry Brian. It is the Democrats who are expert at voter cheating in favor of their own. Did you ever hear of “Landslide Lyndon?” People who had been dead for years voted democrat.

        • Brian hoff says

          Dec 2, 2018 at 11:54 pm

          carolyne first both party do cheat. There is one house race where both party did thing total illegal that the judge cannot decide the case.. Hold than new election with special master to watch the votes being cast to an group of judges counting the vote.

    Goes to show how BIGOTED khan is, how about someone take him to Court with this RACIST moslem owned taxi service, after all, no other service is dedicated to a single Religion. So, khan is acting ILLEGALLY.

    So what happened to the British spirit ? When did they lose their courage and decide to grovel at the feet of this little Muslim dictator? I’m still proud of my heritage but I’m sad for it’s willing demise.

    • Anne Smith says

      Dec 2, 2018 at 6:29 am

      Th British spirit has been educated out of them by the left wing infiltration of all the educational establishments. Most people today are scared stiff to say anything for fear of being called racist. They mutter at home in quiet but do nothing.
      Young people are coming out of schools and colleges having been brainwashed to believe that it is only right to welcome anyone and everyone to their country to live off the welfare provided by the few remaining hard working Brits.

      Theresa May is right in with this and is now signing up to the UN Compact on Global immigration which makes all immigration a human right, bans any reference to “illegal” migration and means we shall have to welcome most of the over population from the third world hell holes into our country.

    Possible fight-back strategy:

    Ride in Khan’s Halal Kabs with a friend / partner of the same sex as you. Turn your phone on and record a video of yourself and your friend / partner kissing. Make sure you keep recording…

    Regardless of what happens, post video online.

    Do it *a lot* and see how long Khan’s Halal Kabs last.

    We call this the taxi jihad. Of course there are Muslim black cab drivers but they understand the need to destroy this british institution as it will allow more shariah cabs to operate. And what are Shariah cabs? we call them rapemobiles…get ready for UK 2050, a country dominated by filthy Muslim cab drivers.

    by the way, does anyone have evidence that Uber is not owned by a convert to Islam? didn’t think so. Uber is also a Muslim company, the evidence speaks for itself

    Pretty much the only place left to see traditional UK culture is at the “World Showcase” at EPCOT.

    That is, of course, until the far left / CAIR calls Disney out on this.

  9. AntiIslamicman says

    Dec 1, 2018 at 2:13 pm

    The Muslim Mayor was put in place to destroy London. London in certain areas has turned into an Islamic shit hole. Whitechapel is a hell hole and not safe to walk through at night. As for Cab only Muslims that’s not surprising as Muhammad kicked out all of the non Muslims in Mecca. It’s clear what Islam is trying to do, it’s in their false book. Muslim only areas. I hope the lefties know what they are doing.

    Follow the money. Get a hold of Khan’s bank statements and see what kind of deposits are made. Oh wait, silly me. He most likely has an off shore shielded account. If the average person did this, he or she would end up bankrupted and in prison. Meanwhile, the elites and their chosen acolytes get to break all sorts of laws and yet become rewarded for it.

    When the Queen passes on, her progeny will no doubt not waste one moment to declare the old traditional UK passé and now a part of the greater caliphate.

    • Rufolino says

      Have you noticed how worried Prince Charles is looking. The country he is going to inherit will belong to Islam. Constitutionally, he is unable to speak, or all hell would break lose and the Monarchy could fall.

      But one day…

  11. somehistory says

    Why does he want to? Because satan the devil is, “The thief (that) comes to steal, kill and destroy”(Jesus said this, recorded at John 10:10), and sends out his children to imitate him in “stealing, killing and destroying.”

    If it’s a person or animal…the devout moslim kills. If it’s a product or money…the devout moslim steals. What the devout moslim can’t kill or steal, he destroys.

    Someone commented “follow the money”, but stopped short on the trip. I have no doubt that London’s “illustrious” mayor will benefit from the scheme, financially or otherwise, but the real aim here is to take over the London cab business. Once the black cabs are are no more, it will be humorous, in a dark way, to see how much Londoners will be paying for taxi service. I suspect a lot. And all that money will be going to finance the further destruction of British society. Sad…

    The butcher’s trade has been transformed by Muslim Halal meat. Before long, only Muslims will be butchers. Looks like London taxi cabs are following the same prescription. Wake up people.
