Susan Hall delivers scathing speech after losing election campaign to Sadiq Khan
I’d like to congratulate all my fellow mayoral candidates and congratulate Sadiq on his victory. Spending a year campaigning for this election has been an honor and a privilege. I have loved speaking to Londoners about the things that matter to them. The thing that matters to the most and to me is reforming the Mets, making London safe again. I hope Sadiq makes this his top priority. He owes it to the families of those thousand people who have lost lives to knife crime under his Meryl team. And I hope too that he stops patronising people. Like me who care, this isn’t an episode of The Wire. This is real life on his watch. I will continue to hold Sadiq to account, to stand up for the hard working families, to motorists and to women. I love London and I urge Sadiq to try harder to make it better, for all our sakes.
