Good, little London girls shouldn't have to face unrealistic expectations of clean or straight teeth.

define "unrealistic" is he targeting overweight or fit people?
Is it like a nightclub can no longer advertise a burlesque show in the Underground

I'd like to see some examples of banned and acceptable body images before I call this guy a a complete dumbass. No matter what, he's an idiot.
Edit:
The ad that started the uproar, and probably a now banned ad:
frick this guy.

Khan said his daughters had helped prompt the decision:
As the father of two teenage girls, I am extremely concerned about this kind of advertising which can demean people, particularly women, and make them ashamed of their bodies. It is high time it came to an end.
Nobody should feel pressurised, while they travel on the Tube or bus, into unrealistic expectations surrounding their bodies and I want to send a clear message to the advertising industry about this.

Hey Hugo, you puny retarded man, this is what happens when muslimism is allowed in the legislative bodies! Yet you defend it.

This is the kind of thing we take for granted. This is why we broke away from that shite box.

A Muslim city elects a Muslim mayor and he starts incorporating his and his retarded religion's ideals into Londonstan's daily life.

What's the point of putting his name in bold?

What the hell does this have to do with Islam? Seems like just left wing SJW shite.

Since it says unhealthy body styles does that mean overweight people can't be in ads or are they just gonna ignore science?
