I would not feel safe in London compared to Manchester, I know because I live in Manchester. The moped gangs, acid attacks that have happened a lot in London - there has not been many of them in Manchester and I know that for fact because I have Manchester Evening News notifications.
We are not going to agree on Sadiq Khan - I think he is a crap Mayor, who is very responsible for policing priorities, there is obvious strong resentment against him allowing the Trump baby blimp, given the massive amount of money raised in short time for a Khan baby counter protest.

The reason that you get more attacks in London is that because it's a far bigger City. It doesn't mean that you stand more chance of being attacked in London than Manchester; the Home Office stats in The Sun I linked to suggest that it is the other way round. I think it's natural not to feel safe in an area you don't know but we shouldn't let that affect our analysis.
Kahn may or may not be a crap mayor, but I think it's daft for people to criticise Kahn for the Trump baby blimp when he couldn't democratically stop it happening. More sensible to organise a petition to give him the authority to ban such things then he could be put to the test in the event of a future Trump visit.
