London Mayor Sadiq Khan's first function to be at Holocaust memorial

Sadiq Khan used his first act as Mayor of London to attend the UK's Holocaust Memorial Ceremony today - 24 hours after the last Labour mayor repeated controversial claims that Hitler was a Zionist.  

The newly-elected mayor swore to be a leader for all faiths in the capital and was at the Holocaust Remembrance Ceremony in Barnet this afternoon alongside Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis, who just last week attacked Jeremy Corbyn by saying Labour had a 'severe' problem with anti-Semitism.  

Mr Khan's visit today is hugely symbolic and will be interpreted as another pointed criticism of Jeremy Corbyn's leadership.

Mr Corbyn was notably absent from Mr Khan's official swearing-in ceremony at Southwark Cathedral in South-East London yesterday amid claims that Mr Khan is keen to distance himself from the Labour leader.

    Symbols do not substitute for policy.

    I don't which one is uglier. What we have here is two very different forms of parasite - the brown/black welfare parasites (Sadiq Khan) and the financial parasites of the City (Zac Goldsmith).
