Sadiq’s gone to pot

IN his latest pathetic attempt to appear relevant, Sadiq Khan has set up a commission to look at decriminalising cannabis in the UK.

Rather than announce it here, the showboating London mayor jetted off at public expense for photo opportunities at a marijuana farm in Los Angeles.

Yet cannabis is inextricably linked to the gangs which bring violence to our streets.

And anyway, Mr Khan has no power to change the laws. Instead of engaging in expensive stunts, he should devote his energy to tackling the epidemic of drug and knife crime in the capital.

Less fun than a Californian jaunt, but far more important to those who pay his wages.
