Quote:Sadiq Khan baby balloon crowdfunding SMASHES target in outrage over Trump protest.

'Sadiq Khan may be forced to approve a request from protesters seeking to float a huge balloon depicting
him as a giant baby after the initial crowdfunding target to have the blimp made was smashed in less than
a week.

Demonstrators are planning to have the huge Sadiq Khan baby balloon fly over London to protest the Mayor's
decision to allow an "angry baby Trump" balloon to float as part of a protest against US President Donald
Trump's official visit to the UK.

The crowdfunding had a £10,000 starting target but was soon smashed, with critics of Mr Khan donating
nearly £53,000 in less than a week.

Yanni Bruere, the man behind the initiative, told talkRADIO: "I was pretty irritated with Sadiq Khan and his
willingness to insult the most powerful man in the western world.
"This is someone who is a friend of Britain, who is half-British himself.
Two can play at that game, if they can do it, then we can."

The Greater London Authority (GLA) gave its authorisation after 16,000 people signed a petition calling for
the Trump baby balloon to be allowed to fly over London.
Mr Khan later defended to support the GLA saying the blimp met the peace and safety requirements needed
to be used during the protest.

Mr Bruere also said that any excess collected during the crowdfunding campaign would be used to host a
"Make London Safe Again" to raise awareness of the escalating numbers of violent crime committed in London.

He continued: "What we're going to be doing an event in August called Make London Safe Again. It will be a
demonstration to make London Safe Again and put real pressure on Sadiq Khan to make London feel safer
again.

"It will be going to good causes and it will be going to other events."
Mr Khan and President Trump have repeatedly locked horns after the US leader condemned the Mayor over
records showing an increase in violent crime on the streets of London.
There have been 1,296 stabbings in London since the beginning of 2018, 51 fatal.

In an interview before his arrival in the UK, the US President again attacked Mr Khan saying he has "done a
very bad job on terrorism." Mr Trump said: "You have a mayor who has done a terrible job in London. He has
done a terrible job. "Take a look at the terrorism that he is taking place. Look at what is going on in London."

After it was announced the Trump balloon would be allowed to take off, Mr Khan told Good Morning Britain
signalled he would not censor protesters flying a Sadiq Khan balloon as long as it was "peaceful and safe."

Asked whether he would have been fine had the balloon represented him, the London Mayor said: "If it's peaceful
and safe, yes. It's not for me to decide what's in good taste or bad taste.
"My views are irrelevant. The issue is, do they have the freedom to protest, freedom to assemble, and should they
be allowed to do so? If it's peaceful and it's safe, then they should do so."

The Trump baby blim[p] floated in Parliament Square ahead of the mass anti-Trump protest in London before being
whisked off to Scotland to accompany demonstrators marching in Edinburgh after President Trump's arrival at his
Turnberry resort...'
