Sir Sadiq Khan has said polls suggesting Labour is set to be decimated in London at the upcoming local elections “scare me” as he made a heartfelt plea to voters not to take their frustrations with central government out on councils.
The Mayor of London told the Standard he is “so angry” about “the omnishambles” of Peter Mandelson’s appointment as US ambassador and the “distraction” it has caused ahead of May 7, when Londoners will head to the polls to elect their councils.
