- “It’s possible that Susan Hall could run close. And it’s even possible she would win. And if that happens we really will see the Conservatives point towards a miracle."
There’s some “nervousness” amongst the Labour Party that voters in Inner London haven't turned up to support Sadiq Khan, says politics professor Tim Bale.

London certainly has some issues. But why the heck would anyone want Hall to sort it out? The Tories never fix anything.
Exactly that - we just have to look at the last Tory Mayor and how great that went ... NOT!
Khan’s far from perfect but who wants a Racist anti Islamic homophobic for mayor of London…
Mayor Khan is home and dry. The big issue here is the SQUATTER in No 10.
Bye bye London.
has he flown out then ?
More like a wet blanket and the pretender.
The right wing showing us all just how deluded they are.
Explain, that's a sweeping statement.

@markjoseph196 no u don't u need to get rid of this current government who for 14yrs have changed formulas to help deprived areas Sunaks words to pump back to areas who already have wealth and also they have cut the numbers of police in the Boroughs and on the streets
@@CursedWheelieBin I work for the council mate nice try but ok run with what ever narrative u want
Daily Fail have been implying the Torys could win London all morning, and have just now completely changed their tune :)
Get khan out
of the country !
Can't stand Khan, but he is miles ahead. When you look at London's demographic it is not surprising.
Exactly! A young educated population would never vote for someone as dim as Susan Hall
what makes you think white people won't vote for him? He's behind all the gentrification that is resulting in white people returning to London suburbs. The road closures and cycle lane rollouts are mostly supported by white middle class families.
London is not majority brown or Muslim mate
No native British political candidate will be elected in London for the foreseeable future.
Our politicians have virtue signalled and bent over for so long that now the place is overrun
@@user-we1sv5ud3h 46% of Londoners are Black and Minority Ethnic, compared to 14% of England as a whole. West London has the highest proportion (53%) of its population that are Black and Minority Ethnic, followed by East London (50%). South London has the smallest proportion of people from Black and Minority Ethnic backgrounds
Look who the Tories have got a woman that never fails to embarrass herself who's had to do so many u turns she's still dizzy and delusional.
Still miles better that Islamist Khan 🤷🏽🇬🇧🇮🇱🇮🇳
Much better than Khan
Oh look, another unstable Loony Leftie.

Khan wins comfortably, another failure by Sunak despite all the Tory Propaganda. Sunak must know he is in the final days of his Premiership.

ANd I thought the last comment was racist.
So I'm a racist if I say? Get khan out !!!!
Racist means nothing now days I bloody hope he goes as well
Nope. But you would be a racist if your arguments hinge on the fact you feel he's not British or as British as you are...
Conservative David Cameron's government passed a law requiring local governments to take steps to reduce emissions. In response Conservative Mayor of London, Boris Johnson, came up with ULEZ. Khan's just a typical, average politician, interchangeable with the average Labour politician or even some Conservatives, like Mayor Boris. I don't like Khan but the hatred that he gets is weird. So yes I think there is something at play here, other than opposition to his policies or even his personality.
Depends why you're saying it.
Cant believe this bow lox is happening in our country its a disgrace shame on the government We need a GENERAL ELECTION asap RS was not elected by the people I have voted C in the past!!!! Will never again while RS in in charge!!!!
Tories have spent a fortune on online ads for telling Londoners Khan will bring in pay for mile.
Get this Khunt Khan...Out.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Hard Luck you flagshagging Gammon
@@davidpearson243 💯 👍
If London vote him back in, they've only got themselves to blame when London is no more!
I think London will be here long after we're gone Harriet, calm down
You are right and we can expect more knife crimes in London with the useless Khan in charge.We all know why he won again when you look at the city of London full of Muslims.
Calm down dear. We all like living in a multi cultural city thank you very much. From a white person
Sadiq is fine imo, not amazing, but Susan Hall might be the worst high profile tory candidate ever, which sounds crazy considering Johnson existed
Its the sad people. Who cant accept other cultures who are the problem . There are good and bad in all people.And alot of people on social media these days .live in a bubble . And have their heads stuck up their own backsides.
Khan is a monster.
citation needed 🤣
Control your Wrath!
Khan needs to be removed 😪 he being mayor of London has changed are Capital so far . And its not for the good.
What’s the alternative though?
I don’t live in London but I hear conflicting info about whether or not crime rates are getting better or worse and I’m even finding conflicting stats from left wing and right wing publications, making it all useless.
10+ Points in front and a swing to Labour, gosh how close, Not
And the results are? A crushing victory for Khan! 😂 So just more wishful thinking from the right.
White person here.
I switched to greens from labour due to Gaza and trans issues - if you won't protect the most vulnerable people who is next after you've gone after them
Absolutely right
Gaza and Trans issues... because that makes sense. They put LGBTQ to death, numpty.
Anybody wanting to take things back to better times , wouldn't be allowed on the ballot 😢
Because “it’s time for change” is the lowest hanging fruit in terms of campaign slogans. Dummies line up behind s**t like that.
Sunak needs to resign last year.
END THE KHANAGE‼️ 😎
This aged well.
😂
I wouldn't let Susan Hall run a lemonade stall, never mind a metropolis.
She doesn't want to punish poor people who work a mile or so within the ULEZ. Labour do!! The jobs and businesses that Khan is destroying is unacceptable!!
So you would let Khan ruin London even more
Pajeeeeeet scammer spotted 🤣
Need to be very nervous if he gets back in , to further destroy whats left of London
Time to introduce a four year fixed term
Mayoralty’s should be abolished. If they want a figurehead to blame every council has a council leader. And while they are at it the office of Police and Crime Commissioner should also be abolished. That is just a ridiculous waste of public money
Totally agree
The point of a Mayor in big cities is to co-ordinate across councils for the benefit of the city in cross city services. It was the Tories that pushed the notion of Mayors as they thought it would benefit them, only having to control one person in a city. Ha ha. The Tories' judgement is still poor.
Please vote him out, he has wrecked London,and Londoners pockets
But why oh why does he get so much “hate” playa? Do be tellin’ me cos me not understand it. Is it racism? It’s gotta be, huh? 🤤
I mean, when in doubt, let’s chase the racism ghost. That ever-present, illusive racism ghost 👻 that’s present everywhere all at once 🙄.
It couldn’t possibly be the sudden rise in knife crime after he prevented the police from stopping and searching. No no no. It’s only working class people who are typically victims of knife crime so Khan’s willing to overlook the stats. So long as his rich pals are taken care of 😉
Well this dated quickly, it's not even close.
They should be worried especially if you were already worried about London now you should be it was bad enough under this man
It's now set to get worse
If I had a small children I don't think I would take them to visit attractions in London especially with how bad crime is
would you be safe taking youre children for a day out in London anymore?
Haven't been to London for years now can't see myself visiting anytime soon I was born there in 1978 it's got far far worse from when I was there
We need count binface
Well, that's aged well!
How do you like those apples, Tory Times
This aged well!😂😂😂
For his third term a new more appropriate title...... Toilet attendant.....
This has aged well……
Sadiq would crumble in a crisis and everything he has done has been a disaster; but I didnt see a point voting for "anyone but Sadiq" candidate; her policies were empty apart from scraping the ULEZ expansion.
Ah good old ULEZ...remember who started that?
@@BrianV-ie4mwBoris Johnson.
Absolute Twaddle. Susan Hall is going to lose badly.
Why should London have a Pakistani Mayor ?
Khan was born in London but that Reform muppet Ben Habib is actually Pakistani.
Look at Londons population make up and then ask yourself that question again.
Probably for the same reasons we have an Indian prime minister. It’s not the person but the policy.
@@duckcensorship7446 It’s outrageous
Fair point ☝️
Unbelievable... i thought every newspaper I read and comment on youtube hated Sadiq Lhan
Why worry ? They endorse his behaviour
Im quite glad hes back .will only cause more division and what's coming ,will arrive sooner 😊😊😊
With a 33 point lead
Brilliant thumbnail!! Times readers will be furious that Khan won comfortably.
People cant complain if they dont vote.
Who's complaining? Great day for London.
Yes he’s won 5 constituencies in London all with 5% swings to khan ftom 2021 ….
This aged very badly.
Why were votes not being counted in London and the West Midlands until today (Saturday)? Do their boundaries include some remote enclaves or off-islands I've never heard of? Or was Royal Mail late delivering thousands of ID-dodging postal votes?
But seriously...I've not seen any explanation for this. Even from the Beeb.
Cos the racist smirking runt is a cheat!!
Money - it's cheaper to pay people a day rate than a nighttime one - it makes total sense frankly!
@@rsh793
Well if that is the true reason, it's scandalous that electoral law allows returning officers to use that as an excuse. Elections cost what they cost - that's democracy.
Because Sadiq has fixed the votes duh he is a law maker so probably a law breaker. I bet he knows ALL the corrupt police, judges etc If you’ve ever seen the way he responds back to people, he knows he isn’t going anywhere 😂
He won with his largest majority, despite the Gaza issue being front and centre for some voters. Shows how some political commentators are not accurate. And i like the Times channel, Especially their coverage of Ukraine.
Why can’t ppl try get him out I don’t get it
❤ we voted 4 Khan. We voted 4 the muslim & the suffering of the Palestinians in Gaza. I was not voting 4 any other candidate.
Dream on. Susan Hall, very poor.
Don’t worry, it’s Londonistan
People vote Car in is their own faults just wait and see what happens
Title: Parliamentary Verbal Joust: Labour vs Conservatives
[The scene opens in the Parliament with Labour MPs seated in the red corner and Conservative MPs in the blue corner. The tension is palpable as they prepare to engage in a heated debate.]
Labour MP: Ah, here we go again. The Conservatives thinking they're the next coming of Secretariat.
Conservative MP: Oh, please. We'll have you know that we are the epitome of grace and speed, much like the great Secretariat himself.
Labour MP: (sarcastically) Right, because nothing says "fast and powerful" like austerity measures and budget cutbacks.
Conservative MP: At least we're not stuck in the socialist mud like you lot, clinging to outdated ideas and failed policies.
Labour MP: Failed policies? Coming from the party that brought us Brexit chaos and economic uncertainty? Give me a break.
Conservative MP: Oh, please. We may have had a few missteps, but we're still the frontrunners in this race. You lot are just hanging on by a thread.
Labour MP: Hanging on by a thread? Funny, because last time I checked, it was your party that was being torn apart by internal division and power struggles.
Conservative MP: (defensively) We may have our differences, but at least we're united in our goal to lead this country to greatness. Can't say the same for you lot.
Labour MP: (chuckles) Greatness? More like a slow trot to mediocrity. If you think you're on the fast track to success, you're more delusional than I thought.
Conservative MP: (gritting teeth) We'll see who's laughing when we cross the finish line first in the next election.
[The Speaker of the House interrupts the debate, calling for order as the MPs continue to exchange barbs and insults. The rivalry between Labour and Conservatives is as fierce as ever, with neither side willing to back down.]
Speaker of the House: Order, order! Let's have some decorum in this chamber, please. Remember, you're here to represent the people, not engage in petty squabbles.
[The Labour and Conservative MPs begrudgingly obey the Speaker's command, but the tension in the chamber is still palpable as they prepare for the next round of verbal sparring. The battle between the red corner and the blue corner continues, as each side vies for the title of political heavyweight.]
[End scene.]
Wishful thinking from the ToryTimes.
People are absolutely mental if the vote for labour or conservative. David Kurten Heritage Party We are now in our fourth year since we launched as a party in autumn 2020. This is a vital year for us as there is likely to be a General Election at the end of 2024. We will also be contending local elections in England and the London Assembly election next May.
In the UK, the old political parties continue to work in lockstep together to allow perverse materials into classrooms for Relationships and Sexuality Education, permit open borders with unprecedented levels of both illegal and legal immigration, and make war on motorists with increasingly onerous restrictions on travel for ordinary citizens such as LTNs, 15-minute cities and the ULEZ.
The Heritage Party is the only UK-wide party that will end the climate emergency hoax and lift all restrictions on carbon dioxide emissions. We will ensure that people can continue to buy and use petrol and diesel cars and keep gas boilers in their homes. We will repeal regulations that require homes to have SMART meters and meet impossible new building emissions criteria, designed to force the abandonment of older buildings that are a precious part of our heritage.
We will introduce a Child Protection Bill to protect children from propaganda that attempts to confuse them with gender ideology or groom them into early sexual activity. We will also control our borders by pushing illegal boats back across the Channel and introducing strict caps on student and work visas while ensuring we train enough young British people to do the jobs that need to be done in this country. I Edward say that if anyone votes Lib/Lab/ Con or any other left wing parties they need their head examined. Heritage could, with your help make Britain great again. Anyone who votes labour or tory or any other left wing party need their head examined
Nice try Rupert!
He hates us English no matter what happens.....

Mark my words Khan will be voted back in again & that will give him a mandate to expand the ULEZ zone/ Tax even further then pay per mile will be next on his agenda well done the voters of London I've got no sympathy for you
KHAAAAAAAAAAAAAN!
People only have to look at what a Labour member as mayor has done to London to know that if people vote Labour then the same will see the same thing happening across the country.
They let 1200'000 immigrants in. That's Newcastle's population x4. (IN 12MONTHS!). And it's the road users who pay. For the extra Pollution? We're 2nd class citizens.
What are you on about
@agnesbiney4272 Just facts👍. Englands population density is 438 top 8th s#it hole. London's population is worse than New york. Each person they let in will produce 16TONES of carbon. And he's changing road users with ULEZ. But you're too busy jehading to see facts.

I'm worried about the racists in places like Welling voting for Susan Hall because they are annoyed that they can't drive their diesel vans through my Zone 2 neighborhood at 40mph.
Racists 🤡😁 everyone’s a racist, intellectually it’s in group preference ? I would suggest even the Major could be perceived to be of this ilk
It would be a shame of Khan to lose out over ULEZ. The fact is the the donuts (middle class) tend to have the cars that do the pollution. They drive those cars in to the centre and leave their pollution behind for the poor people to breath in. Then they F*off back to their suburbs in their 4WD monsters.

I suffer with asthma and I appreciate clean air. I get asthma every time I go up to London from Kent. Mostly caused by exhaust fumes from cars! I cannot imagine living in London any more. 170,820 people aged under 18 have asthma in London. Once you have asthma...you have it for life! Getting pollution down in London may not be popular but it is essential for residents health. Khan has gone the extra mile to reduce the toxic gasses being pumped out in millions of tonnes every day on the streets of London. I appreciate that.
