Rachel Holdsworth London News Roundup: The Ripper Gets A Taste Of His Own Medicine

29 year old Muhaydin Mire has appeared in court charged with attempted murder after Saturday's knife attack at Leytonstone tube station.
A Ripper-style 'mutilated' effigy of the Jack the Ripper Museum's owner was dumped outside the building in a protest on Sunday.
A 23 year old man died after being found stabbed in Leadenhall Street on Sunday morning.
Over half a million quid's worth of fake goods have been seized from shops in and around the Trocadero.
Someone's died after being hit by a train at Raynes Park station.
London's suburbs are increasingly just dormitory towns.
Monday rush hour wasn't kind to the new road layout at Elephant and Castle.
The mayoral election's five months away but spats are flying. Sadiq Khan's team has accused Zac Goldsmith's campaign of a 'coded racist attack' in a leaflet, and Khan himself is accused of exaggerating his contribution to Crossrail.
And it looks like the government's putting off a decision about airport expansion until after the mayoral election. Given the Conservative candidate is passionately anti-Heathrow expansion, that's... convenient.
Well, that's killed #YouAintNoMuslimBruv.
