Sadiq Khan and Zac Goldsmith, the frontrunners to succeed Boris Johnson as Mayor, have released their official campaign election broadcasts videos.
Unveiling his Boris-heavy film, Goldsmith said: “London needs a Mayor who will get things done – who can work with government, holding them to account when necessary – who puts Londoners first.
“I’m standing for Mayor to protect London’s success, and make it work for all Londoners. Through my Action Plan for Greater London, I will deliver more homes, better transport, cleaner air and safer streets – all while keeping London’s economy strong and Mayoral Council Tax frozen.”

I kept my promises, and delivered for them day in, day out. It's the reason I was rewarded at the last election with the biggest increased majority of any MP in the country. I'll do the same for Londoners.If you back my Action Plan for Greater London, a plan that works for all Londoners, vote for me on the 5th of May – and I will deliver.

Releasing his video, Sadiq said: “I’m running for Mayor because I want all Londoners to get the opportunities that our city gave to me and my family when I was growing up.
“A secure home you can afford, good jobs with decent pay, a modern and affordable transport system, an NHS that puts patients first, fantastic state schools and real action to reduce crime.
“I’ll be a Mayor for all Londoners.”
Londoners will elect a new Mayor and the 25 members of the London Assembly on May 5th. Candidates for Mayor include Conservative Zac Goldsmith, Labour’s Sadiq Khan, Liberal Democrat Caroline Pidgeon, the Green party’s Sian Berry and UKIP’s Peter Whittle.
