Sadiq Khan

Mayor of London

Sadiq Khan is the current Mayor of London, having made history by winning a third term in 2024. First elected in 2016 and re-elected in 2021, the Labour politician has focused on key issues like housing, transport, and air quality. His most controversial policy has been the expansion of the Ultra Low Emission Zone (ULEZ), which supporters praise for improving air quality while critics argue it unfairly penalizes drivers. Khan has also worked on increasing affordable housing, tackling crime, and maintaining London’s global status post-Brexit.
