Not one of the 20 candidates seems up to leading one of the world’s six greatest cities. But London still needs a mayor. It needs a mayor because 2021-2 could be the most challenging in the city’s modern history. Its public transport faces imminent bankruptcy, its knife crime is rising and no one, absolutely no one, knows if central London’s economy on coming out of the pandemic will fully recover or find itself on the brink of collapse.

The known unknowns of the 2021 local elections

The known unknowns of the 2021 local elections There are a couple of questions I don t have answers to – but I know these local elections will provide them.
