Holly Valance slams Sadiq Khan as she opens up on horror mugging in London


Holly Valance revealed she was mugged in London as he hit out at Sadiq Khan for “out of control” crime.

The former Neighbours star said she had her mobile phone taken from her pram on King’s Road in the upmarket Chelsea area.

She said she did not think the Labour Mayor of London had done a “particularly good job”.

The model and pop singer told GB News’s Chopper’s Political Podcast: “All of us have been robbed on Kings Road in our area.

“I just had my phone taken out of the pram. Stealing off a mum with her baby in the pram is pretty low stuff.

“No, I wasn’t hurt, fortunately, but yes, I’ve had friends get belted for their phones and watches and home raids and trying to kick in doors.

“Particularly in Chelsea because they know people are walking around with probably a nice watch on.

“If they rob me they’re in for a nasty surprise. I’m usually in a Swatch down the street. No offence to Swatch.

“They [the police] don’t really turn up. You can call them. But I don’t ever see a bobby [on the beat].

“It’s like kids point and stare now when you see a policeman on the street – they say ‘look mum, a real live police person’.

“I don’t think Sadiq has done a particularly good job. I think crime’s out of control.”

A spokesperson for the Mayor of London said: “This was clearly a frightening and distressing experience.

“While homicides, gun crime and the number of young people being injured with knives have all fallen since 2016, despite our population rising by more than a million in that time, and robbery is down 16% compared with pre-pandemic levels it’s clear that violent crime remains far too high and there’s much more to do.

“The Mayor is determined to continue making progress by supporting the police to bear down on crime at the same time as being tough on the complex causes of crime – poverty, inequality and a lack of opportunities for young Londoners – which have all been made much worse by years of government cuts.”
