BLIMP BATTLE
A giant blimp of Sadiq Khan could fly over London after mayor approves a Donald Trump one to fly during his visit
The only way this plan can be stopped is if Mr Khan blocks it
A GIANT baby blimp of Sadiq Khan could be flown over London during Donald Trump’s visit after a campaign to fund the stunt smashed its target.
The crowdfunding page was set up after the London Mayor’s decision to allow anti-Trump demonstrators to fly a giant balloon of the President in a nappy during his visit on Thursday.

Campaigners raised £35,000 for the Khan baby balloon.
The only way it can be stopped is if Mr Khan blocks it.
It comes as Mr Khan was accused of ignoring his day job because he's obsessed with "attacking" Donald Trump.
Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani blasted the Mayor of London over his opposition to the President.

He claimed Mr Khan is contributing to the rise in crime in London by failing to carry out his duties properly.
Mr Giuliani is best known as Mayor of NYC at the time of the September 11 terror attacks.
He also pioneered the "broken windows" approach to policing - which saw officers aggressively target minor offences as a way of cutting down on serious crime.
The US politician, now a member of Mr Trump's legal team, hit out at Mr Khan ahead of the President's visit to Britain this week.

The London Mayor has given protesters permission to fly a huge balloon depicting Mr Trump as a baby over the streets of London.
Mr Giuliani : "Sadiq Khan should be ashamed of himself. He’s so busy attacking President Trump’s visit and, in the meantime, crime is spiralling in London.
"Maybe he should just do his job instead of attacking a world leader."
He added: "If crime is going up, he’s obviously not paying attention to his job.

"This is one mayor who can tell him how to reduce crime - you have to pay attention to your job."
Mr Khan and Mr Trump have repeatedly clashed in public.
The President has accused Mr Khan of being soft on crime and terrorism - while the Mayor says Mr Trump shouldn't be offered a state visit to Britain because of his anti-Muslim rhetoric.
