London is far safer than every city in the United States, said the city's mayor, Sir Sadiq Khan, while addressing the city’s reputation for high levels of phone theft.
Sir Sadiq was speaking to the media on the sidelines of the first-ever International Mobile Phone Crime Conference in London.
It comes after Donald Trump claimed there are “no-go areas” in London for the police, and Nigel Farage described the capital as being “in the grip of a crime wave”.
Most Britons across the UK think London is an “unsafe” place to live, according to YouGov poll, but the majority of Londoners disagree.
