He's both a prominent person of colour and in favour of staying in the EU.

The abuse he gets online is simultaneously shocking and wholly unsurprising. 😞

That's great he is so supportive but the way he gets treated online is appalling.

Sadiq Khan has tweeted in our support three times in the last 24 hours. It’s a shock to read the tweets he’s had in reply, though. It seems he has a huge number of very unpleasant followers who are there solely to attack him personally.

Hello all,

Just seen this Tweet - https://twitter.com/MayorofLondon/status/1006560526627942402 - from Sadiq Khan showing his support for the WMUK / Bloomberg editathon yesterday.

Well done to everyone involved!

Stevie
