TfL says it will take down the adverts due to 'public sensitivity' after fresh child sex abuse allegations against the pop star.

The adverts feature Jackson's face with the word"innocent" over his mouth, along with the slogan:"Facts don't lie. People do."to"prioritise advertising revenue over the option of remaining neutral on such an emotive topic".My uncle Michael Jackson was a child at heart

"An advertising campaign such as this perpetuates this fear amongst survivors and is very misplaced," it added. According to the page's author, the campaign decided to post the adverts on London buses because"they are iconic and instantly recognisable across the world".

Fantastic news. It was not appropriate and i'm still not sure how it passed TFL standards for advertising. At least now victims can be safegarded from potential perpetrotors copying this practice to use in order to intimidate their victims. Very welcome news indeed.

Time to remove poster of Islam and the Quran, as this vile ideology supports peadophilia

Frightening world we live in, this is what happens when we give idiots power!

mj ❤️ V Accusers $💶💴💷

What were they advertising?

Unbelievable FFS SadiqKhan who of you lined up for next weeks ads?

Of course, because once someone is dead there is no presumption of innocence and people cannot speak up for those unable to defend themselves

Nearly all superstars are protected by the courts look at the O.J trials. I don’t know if he’s guilty or innocent but some bits are curiously strange

It amazes me that people are so certain that MJ is guilty to be honest. In a world where mental health is at the top of the agenda (MJ was clearly a sufferer) and people are generally accepted for who they are, it seems folk are judging a dead man over a very one sided tv doc!?🙄

Do you kwow wjat is interpretation ?

Joseph Stalin would be proud

Why TfL !!!! He is innocent ..... only the words of 3 money grabbing morons istandwithmicheal MichaelJackson MichaelJacksonIsInnocent

Facts don't lie. Puedos do.

Sounds of the Universe

AbbyMartin this popped up as I'm trying to read up on this🙏🏼

What after that documentary about leaving Neverland has spread a load of lies - should be called ‘Leaving Lies’ that’s all it’s about . No prove or evidence!! It’s a joke man . You wouldn’t do this if he was alive . Makes me so mad . He gave this world so much. He is MJInnocent

He was found not guilty in a court of law and he is no longer here to defend himself. Absolutely disgusting for allegations to be treated as facts.

Shouldn’t have been allowed in the first place. Khan & TFL as bad as the Catholic Church here when it comes to protecting nonces

Michael Jackson is innocent and do you work for the one world government thy do not believe in the truth and they like lies

Can they replace it with Louis tweet?

Replacing them with Wade Robson adverts instead 🖕🏻😡

If they smell money like bees with honey all jump on band wagon whether true. Or not.

Oh right so you can post anywhere about his guilt but not his innocence

Michael Jackson’s die-hard fans now say singer WAS a paedo after watching docDIE-HARD Michael Jackson fans have been left reeling after documentary Leaving Neverland was aired in the UK for the first time last night. The documentary sent waves of disgust through the viewing… Just because you like his songs, doesn’t mean he wasn’t a pervert! I hate to say it, but hearing him talk to that first child during the mock interview sounded a little alarming to me. I don't want to say it, but it sounded like he was trying to sweet talk him. Based on two opportunist liars...
