This should also be great news for Mr Corbyn as Khan won every round, it wasn’t even close

I know this will earn me the wrath of Khan and his supporters, but the likely Conservative nominee Zac Goldsmith will be delighted with this as the polling generally shows him beating Khan but not Jowell. But as Dame Tessa Jowell will confirm it is a mistake to underestimate Sadiq Khan.

Many thanks are also due to PBer Henry G Manson who back in March 2013 tipped Sadiq Khan at 33/1 to be Boris’ successor as London Mayor.

The full breakdown of the result are here
