London election results 2024 live: Sadiq Khan beats Susan Hall in London mayoral vote

London went to the polls on Thursday (May 2) to elect the mayor of London and members of the London Assembly, with Labour’s Sadiq Khan winning a third term.

Figures released on Friday night had suggested turnout was higher in Conservative parts of the city, leading to speculation among Tory ‘insiders’ that Susan Hall is in with a chance against Sadiq Khan. But the count on Saturday saw Mr Khan elected once again.

In total, 13 candidates are taking part in the mayoral election, which is being run for the first time on a ‘first past the post’ basis.

Voters also had the chance to elect members of the London Assembly, which scrutinises the mayor’s work. Each person could cast two votes for assembly members - one for a candidate in one of 14 constituencies and one for a London-wide representative, of which there are 11 in total.

During the term just ending, there were 11 Labour assembly members, as well as nine Conservatives, three Greens and two Liberal Democrats.

We will bring live updates from the counts.
