I think (we) all saw the likelihood of a Labour Government increase today. As for policies (we) will have to wait for the manifesto and (we) can weigh them up against the Tories.

Nice pan of where the booing was coming from Just a rabble of Far Right scum who got beaten by a man with a bucket on his head.

Count Binface beat the Far Right Britain First. There is hope.

Just watched Khan's speech and the utter disgrace that is Susan Hall in the background rolling her eyes.

All sorts of rubbish was flying around. Quite interesting thinking back, you'd think they would have learnt.

The utter oddness is that Khan is beatable. He's very average and not great at public speaking. He also has the tendency to come across at times a bit nasty. Why on earth did they pick such an awful candidate and run such a very narrow negative campaign ?

Merton and Wandsworth was 5.1% swing I read. It's effectively a Labour area now after years of Conservative rule. So many residents must have voted Labour in General Elections but Conservative locally for years. Since Labour have been in a for a while I suspect fears of losing their low council...

Looks like my fears about the low turnout were unfounded (so far) Small, but increase in vote to Labour in Wandsworth. Blimey. I'd to say that wipes the smile of the face of the local Tory councillors, but to be fair they haven't looked very happy for years.

Yes and the polls are very much in favour, but London can be a bit random. That's my only point.

Nothing surprises me about the London electorate and the result may be quite close. I had more nuanced thoughts over the last few days. I'm not predicting it, but a Conservative Mayor in readiness for a Labour Government is not beyond the realms of possibility. Low turnout and the new voting...

Just to reiterate how obsessed they are with anti-car measures. Couple of nasty mini roundabouts near me (on residential) and a right turn where I know someone who got run over. The Labour lead council are going to get rid of them and if they hadn't lost the council the Tories would probably...

Got home safe again.

Make your own mind up.

The day Susan was mugged.

Because they don't want a successful high profile Mayor to challenge the PM at a future election. They don't want another Boris. That has changed somewhat this time, where they have ramped up the rhetoric to damage Starmer. One of the attacks has been to criticise Khan over the rebranding of...

The anti-Khan, London is the worst city in the world thing has been built up by grassroots Tories on social media to try and persuade people NOT to vote Labour in the election. If you look on Twitter the vast majority of anti Khan (and often racist) dirge comes from people outside London who...

That poll was a bit of an outlier, https://yougov.co.uk/politics/articles/49286-london-2024-mayoral-race-khan-47-hall-25 has him way ahead this afternoon. Here from the Standard who are no friend of Khan...

What will definitely unify the "Conservative" party is a lurch to right. A lurch to the right that will see them out of power for at least two terms. That's the very difficult decision they are struggling with.

They are finished in a way I'd never thought possible. I don't think that's great for democracy but they've blown themselves up.

It wasn't a Guardian investigation.
