khan blames channel 4 for “significantly misleading” questions goldsmith’s campaignPakistani politician and former brother-in-law of mayor hopeful Zac Goldsmith, Imran Khan, has accused Channel 4 News of asking “a significantly misleading question” regarding the campaign of the Conservative candidate. He reassured his support for the Tory hopeful’s bid to succeed Boris Johnson.

In an interview with Mr Khan on Friday, Channel 4 news anchorperson alleged that Goldsmith’s campaign had issued “a leaflet calling the opponent, Sadiq Khan, radical and divisive as a Muslim” and that the claim had been “seen as a huge offence by the Musilm community here in London.” In his reply, Mr Khan responded that “I don’t know about it. I don’t think the issue of fundamentalism should be brought into this race,” adding that “the fundamentalist claim against the opponent, I don’t know what led to it, but maybe that wasn’t a good move”.

The Labour party was quick to use Mr Khan’s comments and it issued a statement in the name of Hampstead and Kilburn MP Tulip Siddiq, which said: “Zac Goldsmith’s nasty and divisive campaign has been criticised by senior Tories and community leaders from across London.” It was added that “now even his own former brother-in-law, Imran Khan, has criticised his campaign. Goldsmith should get a grip on Crosby and his campaign managers and put a stop to this disgusting campaign immediately. I have no doubt that he will look back on this after the election and feel utterly ashamed.”
