Gareth Bacon: Khan sees motorists as a cash-cow – and one he intends to milk for all it is worth

There is a threat of London-wide pay as you drive road charge, to fix the damage the Mayor’s done to Transport for London’s finances.

The selection of Conservative candidates for the London Assembly gets under way

Shortlists have been chosen for London South West and for Croydon and Sutton. The elections take place next year.

Stephen Greenhalgh: The Conservatives need a stronger crime-fighting agenda for the capital

We must bring in the technology to allow frontline police officers to carry scanners which enable them to detect knives and guns beneath clothing

WATCH: Bailey says London is now more dangerous than when he grew up

“We don’t intervene early enough with crime, we’re not supporting young people enough to learn how to avoid those things.”

Theodora Dickinson: The Conservative campaign machine in London is in a dire state

Our capital is an aspirational city where a message of opportunity from our party should cut through. We can win these voters back. We just need to try.

Shaun Bailey: Labour is already playing nasty in the election for Mayor of London

Khan does not want to talk about his record. That is because he is failing Londoners. So instead he is trying to blame others.

Nickie Aiken: The Conservatives can start winning in London again

While Londoners want action, the Labour Mayor offers excuses. Shaun Bailey will offer a credible challenge.

Bailey is chosen as the Conservative candidate for Mayor of London

Boff was the runner up. The election takes place in May 2020.

Who is endorsing whom to be the Conservative candidate for Mayor of London?

As voting opens all three contenders have secured the backing from high profile figures – including council leaders and cabinet members.

Paul Scully: Conservative members in London still have time to vote for our Mayoral candidate

All three are great campaigners and proven grassroots workers across London. Winning is a challenge but the prize is definitely up for grabs.

Khan is hanging around City Hall, waiting for the Labour leadership to turn up. London can do better.

I’ve already voted for Boff as the Conservative candidate. Sometimes I suspect that he knows even more about the capital than Peter Ackroyd.

Greg Hands: Bailey is the right person to win in 2020 – and turn London blue again

He has the ideas to take the Capital forward. One great example is his plan to put one thousand extra police officers on the streets by cutting waste in City Hall.

Shaun Bailey: Khan has failed on crime, I will show the leadership London deserves

I would put an extra thousand police officers back on the streets by cutting City Hall waste – and I would use new technology to make policing more efficient.

The civil tone of the rival contenders for the Conservative nomination for the Mayor of London is welcome

There has been robust debate, for instance on legalisation of cannabis, but personal bickering has been avoided.

Hustings meetings being held across London for candidates shortlisted to be the Conservative candidate for Mayor

This evening Shaun Bailey, Andrew Boff and Joy Morrissey will be in Croydon. Voting starts on September 17th.
