Update on London results

By Mary Reid | Fri 6th May 2016 - 4:59 pm

Sadiq Khan’s victory as London Mayor seems inevitable.

London Mayoralty, provisional result so far:
Khan: 44%
Goldsmith: 35%
Berry: 6%
Pidgeon: 5%
Whittle: 4%
Walker: 2%
(96.6% verified)

Four of the constituencies have declared so far, with two electing a Conservative Assembly member and two Labour.

Update: make that three Conservative and four Labour.

Our eyes are still on the London-wide lists, and here Green, UKIP and Lib Dems are in competition for the last six or seven places. It now looks likely that we will get two, as last time.
