(Picture: PA Wire)Four Conservative MPs in London were on Monday firmly in the general election sights of opposition parties after Labour secured its highest number of councillors in the city for more than 50 years.
Sir Keir Starmer’s party saw gains which meant it now has more than 1,150 council seats in the capital, up from 1,128 in 2018, and the highest number since the 1,221 in 1971, according to a Labour analysis.
