A commission has been launched by Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, to review landmarks in the British capital. The review will include: murals, street art, street names and statues.

Black man heard saying "I can't breathe" multiple times during fatal arrest in Texas, body camera video showsBody camera footage of a black man's arrest in Austin, Texas, where he says"I can't breathe" multiple times is under investigation.

In body camera video released Monday by the Austin Police Department, Williamson County Sheriff's Office deputies were shown pursuing Javier Ambler, 40, just after 1 a.m. on March 28, 2019.Ambler failed to dim his car's headlights as he drove past a deputy, according to a sheriff's department incident report. Ambler then tried to flee, leading officers on a 22-minute pursuit that ended up in the city of Austin, the report says.

The 14-minute body camera footage captured the moment the deputies stopped their vehicles, and when they started walking toward Ambler. Officers tried to handcuff Ambler, but said he resisted and pushed back on the officers as he refused to follow the verbal commands, according to Williamson County Sheriff's Office case report. Ambler is seen in distress. As they handcuff him, he is heard saying"I have congestive heart failure."The Travis County District Attorney is leading an investigation into the deadly arrest.

"We have determined that we need to take it to a grand jury," District Attorney Margaret Moore said, adding that officials with the Williamson County Sheriff's Office have not been cooperative."This case has been so unusual. It is not typical for us to encounter obstacles to getting evidence especially from another law enforcement agency."

Brace yourselves for Sadiq Khan Road, Hill, Lane, Square, Alley, etc. etc...

SadiqKhan BLM and Antifa are now going to take down all mosques since they've learnt Mohammed and Islam are the biggest slave dealers on earth, both historically (AD) and currently

SadiqKhan Aside the moral right to judge art and culture, is out financial priority now Can we afford the cost of renaming places? Shame on you Sadiq for endorsing vandalism in your own city.

SadiqKhan Need to add street names representing all commonwealth countries

Mr Khan, instead of paying a 'Night Tzar' £70,000 per year to work 2 days per week, how about you use the money to fund a youth club in a disadvantaged black area of London? No wait, that's right we need to sort out street names.

SadiqKhan Review! Didn't take him very long I'm sure he only announced it this morning. Amazing that he cant move this fast when it comes to knife crime!

SadiqKhan What a stupid mayor

SadiqKhan London is finished. And the more you bang on about this the more far right people will become I’m embarrassed of this movement

SadiqKhan doe this mean liverpool will get demolished and our famous Clifton suspension bridge

SadiqKhan

SadiqKhan Just another waste of money. He should address the serious problem we have in London with knife crimes and gangs, instead of jumping on any and every bandwagon the passes

SadiqKhan Should keep him busy, I’d forgotten about him to be honest?!

When u hv nothing productive to do...nothing wrong with to remind ourselves past,,, it's not an issue for a vast majority of people from all backgrounds I think...better u focus on real issues m8

Part and parcel.

The mans a populist fool pandering to the extremists who believe their view of history means it’s everyone else’s view of history

London will be done n out if this mayor khan succeeds

Blow up Stonehenge too. It was probably built using forced labour so it must go

SadiqKhan knows he is on the way to the dole queue. A liar. A coward. A 'man' that blames anyone but himself. The sooner the people of London get rid, the better. sadiqkhant coward
