Khan’s win: Good for Corbyn, Goldsmith…and, sadly, communalism in London

He is in no sense an extremist – far from it. But his candidacy is more likely to divide London’s voters along confessional lines than Jowell’s would have been.

Iain Dale: In my view, Syed Kamall edged our LBC London Mayoral debate

Boff was, well, Boff. Greenhalgh never really sparked. And Goldsmith was, frankly, all over the place.

WATCH: The LBC Conservative Mayoral debate, chaired by Iain Dale

For those who missed the livestream last night, we present the full recording of the debate.

Philippa Roe, Ivan Massow and Sol Campbell didn’t make the cut.
