The 2024 London mayoral election is due to be held on 2 May 2024 to elect the mayor of London. It will take place simultaneously with elections to the London Assembly and local elections across England and Wales.

Sadiq Khan, who has served as the mayor of London since 2016, will be seeking re-election as the Labour candidate. The Green Party have selected their previous 2022 Hackney mayoral candidate Zoë Garbett as their mayoral candidate.

Background

The mayor of London has responsibilities covering policing, transport, housing, planning, economic development, arts, culture and the environment. They control a budget of around £18 billion per year.[1] Mayors are typically elected for a period of four years, with no limit to the number of terms served.[2] Under the Greater London Authority Act 1999, mayoral elections are held on the first Thursday in May in the fourth calendar year following the previous election, unless varied by an order by the Secretary of State. On 13 March 2020, the government announced the election would be postponed until 2021 due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[3] The change in election date has been ignored when calculating the four-yearly election cycle. Consequently, this election will be held only three years after the 2021 London mayoral election that saw the Labour mayor Sadiq Khan re-elected.[4]

In the 2022 London local elections, Labour gained control of Barnet, Wandsworth and Westminster councils from the Conservatives, but lost Croydon to no overall control, Harrow to the Conservatives and Tower Hamlets to Aspire, a local political party led by Lutfur Rahman. Labour saw a small net gain in seats of 28 to 1,156 while the Conservatives lost 104 seats, winning 404 across Greater London. The Liberal Democrats and Greens both made gains, winning 180 and 18 seats respectively.[5]

Khan introduced an Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ), initially planned by Boris Johnson when he was mayor, in April 2019. The scheme means that vehicles that fail to meet emissions standards need to pay a £12.50 charge each day they drive within the zone, with money raised from charges used to invest in improving transport and air quality. The zone was expanded in October 2021 to cover the area between the North Circular Road and the South Circular Road. Khan has announced plans to expand the ULEZ to cover the whole of Greater London in August 2023.[6] The proposal was voted through by the London Assembly with support from Labour, Liberal Democrat and Green members and opposition from the Conservatives.[7] Khan expressed a desire to replace the ULEZ with a more comprehensive future road pricing scheme.[6]

Khan also froze London Underground fares from 2016 to 2020 and introduced a violence reduction unit into the Metropolitan Police.[8]

Electoral system

The election will take place using first-past-the-post voting where voters choose a single candidate and the candidate with the greatest number of votes is elected mayor.[9]

In previous mayoral elections, a supplementary vote system was employed under which voters would choose a first and second preference candidate, with second preferences being considered if no candidate won a majority of first preference votes. The Greater London Authority considered changing to counting votes by hand instead of electronically to save money.[10]

All registered electors (British, Irish, Commonwealth and European Union citizens) living in London aged 18 or over will be entitled to vote in the mayoral election.

Campaign

The incumbent mayor Sadiq Khan announced in January 2022 that he would seek election to a third term as mayor of London. There had been speculation as to whether he would instead seek election to the House of Commons in hope of becoming leader of the Labour Party.[11][12] The Labour Party officially reselected Khan as its candidate in December 2022 following a vote of party members and affiliated trade unions.[13][14]

The Conservatives began selection their candidate in May 2023. Several people in the party said they should make the election a "referendum" on expansion of the ULEZ.[15]

In February 2023 the Green Party selected Zoë Garbett, a councillor on Hackney London Borough Council who works on health inequalities for the NHS, to be their mayoral candidate.[16] She said that if elected mayor she would introduce free public transport for young people, de-prioritise policing of cannabis and improve protection for renters. She said she supported expansion of the ULEZ to cover all of Greater London, but wanted greater financial support for owners of non-compliant cars.[17]

Reform UK announced the campaigner Howard Cox as their candidate in May 2023. Cox had campaigned against increases in hydrocarbon oil duty, a tax on fossil fuels used by most road motor vehicles.[18] Reform said that Cox would abolish the ULEZ entirely, end low traffic neighbourhood schemes and reduce the use of 20mph speed limits.[19] He said he also wanted to "triple" the number of police officers on the street and the amount of social housing being built.[20] Cox said he had previously always voted Conservative.[21] He said he believed in climate change, but did not think it was caused by human activity and was not a crisis.[21] The party leader, Richard Tice, said the Conservatives should stand down and endorse Reform.[21]

Candidates

Labour Party

The incumbent mayor Sadiq Khan announced in January 2022 that he would run for re-election. He became Labour's candidate after party members and affiliates voted to automatically reselect him in December 2022.[22][23] 96% of local parties and party affilitates voted to re-select him without a contest, with some constituency Labour Parties, including Leyton and Wanstead and Tottenham, voting to open selection to more candidates.[24] Khan had worked as a solicitor before being elected the Labour MP for Tooting in the 2005 general election. He held junior ministerial positions in Gordon Brown's government including spending a year as transport minister. From 2010 to 2015 he served as shadow justice secretary in Ed Miliband's shadow cabinet. He was first elected mayor of London in 2016, defeating the Conservative candidate Zac Goldsmith. He was re-elected in the delayed 2021 London mayoral election, this time beating the Conservative candidate Shaun Bailey.

The shadow foreign secretary David Lammy and the former speaker of the House of Commons John Bercow had been suggested as possible alternative candidates for the party.[25][26]

Conservative Party

In May 2023, the Conservatives set a timetable to announce a mayoral candidate on July 18.[27][28] Applications opened on 9 May and will close on 24 May, after which a longlist will be produced. A committee will produce a shortlist of up to three candidates on 4 June, with local members voting to select a candidate from 4 July to 18 July.[29]

Several Conservative members declared their candidacies, including members of the London Assembly Andrew Boff, Susan Hall and Nick Rogers, the MP Paul Scully, the former councillor Duwayne Brooks, and the former special advisers Samuel Kasumu and Daniel Korski. Boff has sought the Conservative nomination in five previous mayoral elections, while Brooks sought the Liberal Democrat nomination in 2012 and 2016 and the Conservative nomination in 2021.[30] Kasumu had worked as an adviser to Boris Johnson, but resigned in 2021, saying he thought that the Conservative Party were trying to "pick a fight on the culture war and to exploit division".[31]

It was reported that the Conservatives were seeking to find a celebrity or high-profile businessperson to run as their candidate, such as Karren Brady or Robert Rinder, but the party's former mayoral nominee Steven Norris said it was difficult to convince them to "potentially ruin their reputation, for half the city to hate them".[32]

On the question of expansion of the Ultra Low Emission Zone to cover all of Greater London, Boff, Rogers and Scully all said they would unilaterally reverse it if elected while Kasumu said he would grant referendums to affected boroughs to decide whether to be part of it.[27][33][34] Korski said he opposed ULEZ expansion and would accelerate plans to introduce road pricing instead.[35] On housing, Kasumu said he wanted to "make boroughs more accountable for house building" while Rogers promised to develop policy aimed at renters.[27][36] Korski said he would build more housing over train stations and railway track.[37] Scully said he would find new sites for housing, concentrating height in central London.[33] On policing and crime, Brooks said he would abolish the Directorate of Professional Standards of the Metropolitan Police, with investigations of police to be instead conducted by a new body of former police officers and lawyers.[38] Hall said she would introduce a new unit of the Metropolitan Police dedicated the burglary, theft, mugging and fences.[39] Korski said he wanted to create a tourist tax to fund a new "minor crimes constabulary" among other police projects.[37]

Kasumu was endorsed by Steve Baker, Grant Shapps, Priti Patel and Nadine Dorries.[40][41] Korski was endorsed by George Freeman and claimed endorsements from Alicia Kearns, Andrew Mitchell, Joanna Shields, Tom Tugendhat.[35][42]

Potential

Green Party

The Green Party nominated Zoë Garbett as its candidate. Garbett was elected as councillor for Dalston ward on Hackney London Borough Council in 2022, simultaneously coming second in the election for mayor of Hackney with 17.0% of the vote.[53] At the time of her selection she worked for the NHS on health inequalities.[54][55] She had been endorsed by the party's only MP Caroline Lucas and two members of the London Assembly, Siân Berry and Caroline Russell; Berry had served as the party's mayoral candidate on three former occasions.[56][57]

Two other candidates, the councillor and former MEP Scott Ainslie and the councillor Benali Hamdache, contested the nomination. Ainslie had campaigned on "retrofitting London’s homes, delivering free school meals for all primary school children, and ensuring London’s pension funds are divested from fossil fuels" while Hamdache had advocated "a tourist tax and a workplace parking levy in London" and replacing the London Assembly with a new London Parliament.[58]

Independents

Publicly expressed interest

The satirical candidate Count Binface, who came ninth out of twenty candidates in the 2021 London mayoral election with 1.0% of the vote, expressed interest in running again.[64]

Potential

It was speculated that the former leader of the Labour Party Jeremy Corbyn might stand as an independent candidate.[65] Corbyn is the MP for Islington North and is a member of the Labour Party, but has had the Labour whip suspended since 2020 when he said that the scale of antisemitism in the Labour Party had been "dramatically overstated for political reasons".[66]
