London Mayor Sadiq Khan on Monday claimed for the umpteenth time that cities cannot solve their crime problems through mass arrests — even though that has been proven to be false by El Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele.
“There is no place for crime in London,” Khan said on Twitter. “But we can’t arrest ourselves out of the problem.”
“From removing knives from our streets, to providing young Londoners with meaningful and engaging activities, I am committed to being tough on crime and its complex causes.”
