Muslim mayor vows to be leader for all

By Associated Press In Dublin | China Daily | Updated: 2016-05-09 08:29

Sadiq Khan has a simple, striking message for Londoners: He won't be merely a Muslim mayor, but a leader for all.

Khan celebrated his landslide election victory Saturday in a multi-denominational ceremony at an Anglican cathedral accompanied by London's police chief, Christian and Jewish leaders, and stars of stage and screen.

They gave Khan a standing ovation as he pledged to be an approachable Everyman for his city of 8.2 million - including more than a million residents who, like him, happen to be Muslim.
