Mayor of London Sadiq Khan has poked fun at Zack Polanski by responding to a question from him in Urdu, a language the Green Party leader recently used in a campaign video for his bid to become an MP.

Mr Polanski spoke Urdu, the national language of Pakistan, in a video as part of his campaign to be the next MP for Holborn and St Pancras, the constituency where ex-prime minister Sir Keir Starmer stood down.
