London mayor elections - who are you voting for

I've done a search but haven't seen anything posted recently.

I don't understand the hatred for Kahn. Around here facebook is full of people raging about him, but he's still ahead in the polls. So there are some who like him, but they aren't as vocal as the haters.

I've just spent a few minutes reading about Susan Hall 😦, surely she can't be the better candidate?

If I could I would vote for count bin face! Just because he couldn’t be any worse than the others 🤣

FrenchandSaunders · 30/04/2024 11:40

That had occurred to me to be honest!

I quite like the sound of some of the others, but I'm voting for Susan Hall as she's Khan's only real rival and I loathe him. Last time I voted for Sean Bailey.

Interested in this thread?

I'd like to vote Count Binface too.

I’ve been following Natalie Campbell on Instagram, I might vote for her just for her modern breath of fresh air approach.

If he wins he will build at least 1 affordable home ! Plus I like croissants and they are overpriced currently.

The Thames seems to be an important issue to him as well 😂

He cost me a fuck load of money when I had to scrap my car.

Does she? What of it? She's ghastly Khan's only real competition so I'm voting for her.

Shelinaa · 30/04/2024 12:13

Ive already voted for Khan (by post).

He’s fine. A bit of a wally, but I like the fact that he’s discouraging car use.

I might have voted Lib Dem, but I voted Labour because I want the tories to lose in as humiliating a way as possible.

They’re shit in Westminster, and I feel genuinely slightly insulted that they have put up such a dreadful candidate to run a great city!

SoupDragon · 30/04/2024 12:14

On the subject of affordable homes, all the apartment buildings built "by the mayor of London" around here look like prison blocks. They're they're some of the ugliest things I've seen (and given I'm in Croydon, that's saying something!)

raspberrycrackers · 30/04/2024 12:14

I have to say as well that his pledge about funding electric cars for those who can’t afford a ULEZ compliant vehicle with a windfall tax on oil companies is genius !!!

only for the less well off.

Hyperion100 · 30/04/2024 12:24

Susan Hall comes across as a complete moron. I have no idea how she can be the best the tories can offer up.

Just wow @IsadoraQuagmire. What of it? Really? She's a Trump loving, Brexit Loving, Liz Truss's budget loving person who says Britain is invaded by immigrants.
Says a lot about the people voting for her.

Actually what it mostly says is that they hate Khan.

She's racist and a bit thick not great for a mayor.

Well we have a thick mayor now, what's the difference?

Hiker50 · 30/04/2024 14:41

The only reason to vote for Susan Hall is if you love pollution and trump.

Seriously I think she could get in because there is so much misinformation about Khan and a lot of racism.

Youdontknowmedoyou · 30/04/2024 14:41

How can anyone seriously contemplate letting khan stay it? He's destroyed london. It's dangerous, dirty, run down, out of control.
