As we told you yesterday, London Mayor Sadiq Khan, with his city under siege from dangerous threats, is finally taking action. Well, sort of:

As you might guess, former NYC Mayor Michael Bloomberg stood up and applauded Khan’s effort to target forks and spoons after having already banned knives:
Obesity has become a global epidemic, and children face a lifetime of health problems unless we take bolder steps to confront it. @MayorofLondon's plan to ban junk food ads on the @TfL network sets a great example that other cities can learn from. https://t.co/LZHQiQchRO

If Khan adds large sugary sodas to his axis of food/beverage evil list Bloomberg might actually nominate him for a Nobel Peace Prize.

Why be responsible when you can just have the government ban free will?
Your mayor New York.
