I commented on xenophobic and false claims about London being 'violent' and a pattern of targeting of US liberal cities and universities for this interesting article from Times Higher Education: Viral disinformation about London safety ‘damaging universities’ https://www.timeshighereducation.com/news/viral-disinformation-about-london-safety-damaging-universities (you have to sign up to see it but it's free not paywalled)
