In the upcoming London mayoral election, incumbent Sadiq Khan leads Conservative challenger Susan Hall by a significant margin. Initial polls showed Khan ahead with 43%, followed by Hall at 30%, and other candidates trailing behind.

Despite the odds, Hall's campaign claims the race is 'very, very close' and criticizes Khan's tenure, notably questioning Conservative candidates' criticisms of government cuts and their campaign tactics. The first head-to-head debate between Khan and Hall is anticipated to further highlight the contrasts between the two candidates.

A secure, decent home – that’s what every family deserves. London is already delivering the highest number of council homes since the 1970s. And if I’m re-elected we’ll deliver 40,000 more by the end of the decade. https://t.co/kqTJdqkGm7
