Not a big fan of Khan. Feel like lots of British Muslims back him completely based on name and "reputation".

He's a politician, it's his job to look like he's having a good time, just as it's his host's job to pretend that they welcome him warmly.

He's being smart and has to sell himself to the Indian diaspora as well.....its a chunky vote bank!
Sadiq is PM material, definitely better than the present lot in both parties. Either him or Jacob Rees Mogg. The contrast eh, a PM of Pakistani descent or a true posh Englishman!

When Sadiq Khan stepped from India into Pakistan at the Wagah border crossing today he made history.
The Mayor became the first Western politician of his generation to make the journey between the two countries on foot.
It almost didn’t happen after the Foreign Office disapproved of the visit.
“We were advised against going to India and Pakistan on the same trip,” Mr Khan said. “There are tensions between the two countries, there are diplomatic challenges. The land crossing is symbolic.”
Wagah is more than just a narrow white line painted across the road. Seventy years after Partition, it remains the only land crossing open between the historic enemies.
Mayor of London Sadiq Khan poses for a picture during his visit to the Golden Temple complex in Amritsar (AFP)
When the British carved up their Indian empire in 1947, they drew a line between Amritsar and Lahore and beyond, creating two new countries.
Almost 15 million people took fright and, facing mounting violence, they fled, Muslims to Pakistan and Hindus and Sikhs to India.
Carnage followed: massacres, villages set alight, horrific sexual violence and more than a million men, women and children killed.
Mr Khan’s parents were among the Muslim Indians who travelled to Pakistan. They were sheltered from many of the horrors of Partition because of their youth, but his grandparents suffered.
Speaking publicly about his family’s experiences for the first time, he said: “It was very difficult. My nan and that generation, their memories aren’t so great, because they remember what it meant.
“I was familiar with mates’ grandparents in Pakistan thinking unkindly towards the other faith, because their experience was the atrocities.”
His parents, however, had a different approach.
“What’s remarkable is that a generation on, the majority — not all — have not quite forgotten the atrocities, but recognise that you can’t blame somebody of the other faith for what happened,” he said.
Both sets of grandparents led comfortable middle-class lives in and around Lucknow in Uttar Pradesh before they left India.
His parents, Amanullah and Sehrun, had happy childhood memories. “My mum has got great stories about mango trees,” he said.
The family settled in Karachi in Pakistan, where his paternal grandfather was a civil servant. His parents had an arranged marriage.
They had three children — Mr Khan’s oldest brothers and sister — before his father decided to “try his luck” in other parts of the Commonwealth. He joined the air force in Australia first, but soon returned to Pakistan, before moving to London in 1968.

I disagree, I don't see Khan as PM material, he has energy, which makes him a decent MP, but he lacks gravitas to portray an image that would be acceptable to all Brits as a leader. An ethnic minority PM or President needs to be an impressive figure like Obama who exudes calm strength.

KARACHI: I think it is wrong for mayor from one part of the world to lecture mayors from other parts of the world, said Mayor of London Sadiq Khan.
Speaking at the British Council on Friday, he said he believes we could learn from each other. “I can learn from Karachi and Karachi can learn from us,” he said. “Karachi is a growing city, much like London, and growth per say is not a bad thing as long as you have a plan for the growth,” Khan explained. He went on to explain that his plan for London is more infrastructure, ensuring citizens have the skills for the jobs of tomorrow, encouraging businesses to come to your city and building the homes people need, which he said other growing cities can also incorporate.
“London in the greatest city in the world,” he said, laughingly apologising to everyone in Karachi. One of the reasons for this is because in London you can be successful if you work hard and get a helping hand, said the mayor. “You can do whatever you want to do,” he said, adding that this is the same in all good cities. He said all great cities need to start providing that helping hand so people can reach their potential. He related this to the Pakistan cricket team winning the ICC Champion’s Trophy and said that was their true potential.
“There are lots of parallels between both [Karachi and London]. We’re both cities with fantastic culture, fantastic sports and wonderful people but we’re both cities that could be even better,” explained Khan. He reiterated the phrase ‘London in Open’, saying the city was open for trade, for business and for visitors. “It is also open-minded and outward looking, so InshaAllah cities around the world can learn from that and that is hopefully something Karachi and London have in common as well,” he said.
He praised the friendship, hospitality, warmth and ‘mohabbat’ he had been shown during his short trip to Pakistan, saying it would stay with him forever.
Earlier, Khan batted a few overs in a friendly cricket match between children as part of the British Council’s DOSTI initiative, which aims to promote peace through sports. British Council Country Director Rosemary Hilhorst said the mayor’s visit to Pakistan strengthened the friendship between the two countries and supported what the British Council was trying to portray via DOSTI.
“The mayor is equally encouraging of boys and girls and that makes a huge difference,” she said, adding that many of the participants of the DOSTI programme were from ‘tough’ areas in the city. Children from SMB Fatima Jinnah Government Girl’s School, Karachi United Football Federation, CMIS and the World Learning Education Society participated in the cricket matches
Also present at the event were Pakistan women’s cricket team captain and vice-captain Bismah Maroof and Javeria Khan, as well as male team captain Sarfraz Ahmed and former cricketer Mushtaq Ahmed. Earlier in the day, Khan visited Quaid-i-Azam’s Mausoleum and laid a wreath on Jinnah’s grave.
