Much like George H.W Bush- a gangly, out of touch politician who's being propped up by a spin team who know his only way to win is by attacking his opponent with awful ads.

However it's funny considering that before he ran the media reported that he'd get Greens 2nd preference votes because 'muh environmentalism'. Sadiq needs to destroy him in his victory speech on Thursday-wish I was in the capital

Running a fairly disgusting campaign from what I understand.

Though, to the UK posters, are there actually any tensions (overt or not) between Hindus, Sikhs, and Muslims in London? Or is the Tory campaign just trying to play on something that was left back in South Asia?

Eh there's bits and pieces- from what I've seen Muslims (specifically Pakistani) tend to vote more so for Labour, whilst the Hindus and Sikhs are targeted more so by the tories. There's the old Pakistan v India thing, but really the only big and dangerous ethnic divide is Tamil v Sinhalese.

For what it's worth Goldsmith is going after the white labour vote with this- the big fear is that a lot of Labour voters simply won't vote for a Muslim (either for bigoted reasons, or because as one said 'I'm pro-gay rights', which is stupid considering SK voted for gay marriage)
