Obviously this is sarcasm, but on average how often do Londoners get sunny days?

Not as rare as one might think. London actually gets less precip than NYC.

If there's a west wind, there's less chance of sunny weather.

There could be summers with lots of sun. It was 97 degrees there one day earlier this month.

Is he talking about London, which is a specific city, or about British weather generally? He doesn't sound like a Londoner and may be posting from a more northern part of the UK which can have more cloud or rain than the southern part, although all of Britain has its share of both.

However, specifically London, which is in the southeast of England, has had lots of sunny days this summer so far, and kraftie is correct, we had some 90 degree days recently, and it continues to be warm, humid and mostly sunny lately. We're having a good run of sunshine, and even though I do not ever set out to get a tan, I have brown arms from sitting in the park.

It's not true about "London fog" by the way -- that was literally smog/pollution, before the Clean Air Act cleaned up industrial emissions, and now we get less fog than San Francisco - whose fog is actually fog.
