Leading London mayor candidates signal support for permanent Covid memorial Sophia Sleigh Leading mayoral candidates today signalled their support for a permanent Covid memorial monument in London. Incumbent Sadiq Khan said he completely understood the desire for a lasting memorial while Tory candidate Shaun Bailey said a public monument would give people “a space to reflect”. Their support comes after the Prime Minister promised a “fitting and permanent memorial” to Covid victims “at the right moment”. Mr Khan, who has already founded a blossom garden in the Olympic Park to mark the anniversary of the first lockdown, said: “If I’m re-elected on 6 May I’ll listen carefully to all potential proposals from local communities and councils for further fitting tributes in our city.”
