Jim Davidson vows to never visit London

Jim Davidson has vowed to never return to London again.
The 65-year-old comedian – who was born in Kidbrooke – has hit out at the Mayor of London Sadiq Khan, accusing him of "f***ing up" his hometown amid a rise in knife crime over recent years.
Jim wrote on Twitter: "I am never coming to London again. Khan. You have "f****d" my hometown up. (sic)"
The former ‘Big Break’ star was subsequently accused of being racist by a number of Twitter users.
But Jim rubbished the accusation and reaffirmed he intends to avoid visiting London at all costs.
He wrote on the micro-blogging platform: "To all you twitter moaners re my coment on my home town.
"It is purely the congestion and traffic I cannot bare but all you lefties can still call me racsist if if gets you off Charlton?
"You can bypass London and go through Kent. (sic)"
Meanwhile, Jim – who starred on ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ in 2014 – previously admitted to being "depressed" during his time on the reality TV show.
The comedian said if it wasn’t for fellow housemate Dappy, he would have quit the programme.
Jim told BANG Showbiz: "I didn’t think I was going to win, I didn’t think I was even going to come close.
"I didn’t think I would win especially when the arguments with Linda [Nolan] were kicking off and I got really depressed.
"I did think, ‘What am I doing here with all these bloody people?’ If it wasn’t for Dappy I would’ve climbed over the wall. I loved him Dappy, great guy."
