Elections are ultimately about who wins and who loses, and to that end Sadiq Khan appears to have little to worry about. With less than six weeks to go until the May 2 election, a new Savanta poll for the Centre for London puts the Labour Mayor on 51 per cent, streets ahead of his Conservative rival, Susan Hall, on 27 per cent.
With these numbers eerily similar to previous surveys, it suggests that Hall has failed to close the gap between her and Khan. Yet it is far from all good news for the Mayor, seeking an unprecedented third term. On a range of key issues, a majority of Londoners think he is falling short.
