Shaun Bailey: We can’t let London grind to a halt

Failure is not inevitable. Elsewhere, effective transport networks are being delivered. We need that in our capital.

Keith Prince: Londoners will not return to their previous travel arrangements. Whatever the Mayor might want.

There is now ample evidence that lockdown has put rocket boosters under the trend for people to work from home.

Andrew Boff: The London Assembly needs more power to hold the Mayor to account

A lack of accountability allowed a black hole to be created in Transport for London’s budget. Planning decisions are made in secret.

Tony Devenish: The Greater London Authority is undermining localism

If the Mayor is incapable of doing his job, the Government will have to call in the inspectors to take charge.

Bailey must stand

Socialist hegemony in our capital can only be challenged if Conservatives are unapologetic in fighting the battle of ideas.

David Burrowes: Our new relationship with Europe is an opportunity to show more compassion to refugees

I am troubled by signs coming from the UK-EU negotiations. We must not water down rights for those fleeing war, persecution and violence.

Is the scaling back of services on London tube and buses doing more harm than good?

Closing 40 tube stations may give us a “nudge” to stay at home. But reducing the frequency of trains makes overcrowding worse.

It would require some tough decisions to pay for it – decisions I am ready to take: cutting budgets on marketing, staff, and union reps.

Ed McGuinness: To be One Nation Conservatives means winning over Londoners too

Many of those who self-identify as being on the Left also back key Conservative policies.

Max Young: Labour’s London Assembly candidates stress their Corbynista credentials

Most don’t even mention knife crime. Instead they boast of endorsements from far left groups.

Toby Williams: London’s Mayoral election gives Conservatives the impetus to campaign in Labour territory

We need to adapt to the changing circumstances. More of our support is coming from less affluent areas in the capital.

WATCH: Stewart admits he was wrong to call three men “sort of minor gangsters”

“I apologised immediately, …and I shouldn’t have said that,” he confesses after he is told he is not JFK, he is more Michael Palin.

Bailey has three months to persuade Londoners he can cut crime

Showing that the current Mayor is failing is not enough. A strong alternative must be put forward.

Greg Hands: Crime will be the central issue in this year’s election for Mayor of London

147 people were murdered in the capital last year, the highest level since 2008. There were three knife crime murders in Fulham last year, in my constituency.
