Only thing i learned was no matter who you vote for don't vote for Susan Hall
Real questionz why aren't people voting for green party?
Sadiq Kahn*
these candidates are further proof that politics doesn't attract the most intelligent people
Susan Hall makes regular Tories look sane
Please vote for Susan Hall
@@membershipofbus i’d rather jump into a volcano 🌋
Hall hasn't got a clue. She has no figures, no costings. She is winging it, badly.
And khan just makes them up👍
Yes she has! She is honest. She is going to restore the Pre 9 am use of our Freedom pass / 60 plus oystercard.
That the Labour Mayor Sadiq Khan, took from older people.
This woman is a clown , she has no idea what she is doing. The cons have totally lost the spot both nationally and locally. Johnson was a clown but he was milday likable.
@@user-mx1gh3mn3w totally unfunded pledge from Hall. Half a billion pound black hole in pledges. She's as thick as mince.
Where's the money coming from to pay for it? She's spending half a billion on unfunded pledges. She's praised Lizz Truss budget😂😂@@user-mx1gh3mn3w
I’m not the greatest fan of sadiq (although I don’t live in London) but is that the best the tories could do? ‘Oh I can’t give numbers’ really….?!!
All Susan Hall does is complain about Khan. She has no policies.
None of his “policies” are noteworthy for working Londoners. Name one, apart from giving free meals to people who can afford them, free school meals have been available for people who honestly can’t afford them for decades!
Not true she has a lot to complain about the current a Mayor Sadiq khan.
She does have policies.
And all Khan does is blame everyone else for his failings. He’s already had 8 years, time for change.
Vote Count Binface!
Why wasn't the only decent candidate involved in this??
Genuine question, what's wrong with the green party Candidate?
Boycotting LBC for sacking Sangita myska
Hall, she lost her credibility on the tube or was she mugged, lol.
More importantly did she get her Oystercard back?
Don't forget that there are 13 candidates not 4. Why aren't all the candidates in the debate?
It’s a FPTP election.
Because all of those are joke candidates, these are the only candidates who have a chance to get more than 5% of the vote. The others range from loonies to fascists. And then there's Binface.
Because this isn't a true democracy with open information & open discussion, it's a fake illusion that really boils down to a two party system where we're caught in a neverending exchange between Tory and Labour. It's a farce
Because they’re irrelevant.
Having count binface comment on the housing crisis, although funny, would be ridiculous
The Tories have truly let themselves down, Susan Hall was the best they could do? She had no hard facts to contribute, keep telling us it's 'written down' giving the voter unnecessary homework instead of answering the questions asked. I downloaded her manifesto and it is that detailed so i wonder where all this info that she is talking about is written. She has no new ideas on how to tackle not just the effect of crime but the cause. She doesn't have any facts just anecdotes whilst important but don't represent the real scale of things. Truly terrible, as for Lim Dems I don't know why he even turned up, he was sleeping throughout the debate.
I like Zoe and Rob, but no one will vote for them and we can't let Susan win... so vote Sadiq, he should have more leverage when Labour get into power
True, plus if there are preferences for greens or Lib dem policies, vote for them in the assembly, then they can better hold Sadiq to account, and push him in their direction
I wouldn't think like this, sure the voting system has changed to FPTP (a vote for a third party makes one of the main two you dislike more win, which incentives you to vote for them) but just look at the tories in the polls, and the candidate. There is a near zero chance the Conservatives will win. Vote for the party you want to and maybe they will get big enough to influence policies (like the Greens). I would only vote Labour no matter what if it was close.
Afraid to wear a watch in London?? Since when?!? 😂
He's had long enough, and the London decline is ever deepening. Get someone else in!
Susan Hall is a liar. Her refusal to deny support for extreme far right groups shows her true feelings.
But KHAN is a bigger liar so you should vote SUSAN Hall
@@eileenemmins5875 I'm sorry! That is ridiculous. It was Hall that said she was robbed on the tube and continued the lie even when her lost oyster card was returned. It was Hall that made up the story of Khan wanting to introduce pare per mile charges and continued the lie even after she had been told it was a lie it is Hall that lies about not supporting white supremacists. No one lies quite like Hall haha
"extreme far right" okey dokey
Susan Hall is not a liar. Sadiq Khan the Mayor for 8 years is! He lied said he was taking our use of our Freedom Pass / 60 plus oystercard temporarily,
because of COVID social distancing.
But we were very upset COVID, and social distancing ended. But our use of
Our Freedom Pass / 60 plus oystercard
Use pre 9 am In the week, was not restored to us!!! Sadiq Khan wastes so
Much tax payers money, put his part of the council tax a huge amount again! This is a leftie L.B.C. attacking
Picking only on Susan Hall!
what about the extreme far left groups
ZOE FOR LONDON💚💚
To fall
Susan Hall is like if they lobotomised Nicola Murray. The Lib Dem is really boring. The green is alright. I’m voting for Sadiq.
It’s all about greed! My service charge is now more than my Morgage- thanks L&Q
Not a fan of Sadiq at all, could the tories not find anyone less of a trumpet than Hall 😂
What do you mean Susan Khan is not a musical instrument!?? Susan Hall should not be discriminated against , because she is a woman! Why have we not had a Woman London Mayor!
Susan Hall will be a great London Mayor. If everyone votes conservative
to get her in!
@user-mx1gh3mn3w I'm not discriminating her because she is a woman. I'm saying that there must be a plethora of better suited people within the Tory party to run. She can't string a coherent sentence together, her answer to every question is "I don't know, it's written down", "yeah but what about Khan", unable to perform the basic duty of a competent orater, articulating her vision for the post.
It has nothing to do with her being a woman, people like you take a protected characteristic and use it as a shield for terrible policy and minimal competency 👍
@@tylerlovatt8586 i can't think of a suitable Tory candidate. More importantly whoever the Tories chose they would have lost against virtually any Labour candidate in the current climate, let alone in London, which is generally more liberal/left than the rest of the country. Pinning hopes on ULEZ anger in a city where most people don't own a car, and most drivers are ULEZ compliant is not going to push them over the edge. At the GE the Tories are on course to lose all their London MP's.
@@zivkovicableulez affects 4 million people and a recent BBC poll showed 82% of Londoners strongly disapprove of Khans ULEZ expansion. People do not want it which is why all Mayors will be scrapping it except Khan because he only cares about money and doesn't like poor people
Outer London is different, more people rely on their cars because of infrequent and unreliable public transport. Sadiq Khan has upset outer London this time, he pushed through a ULEZ tax that according to his own consultation the majority did not want.
I feel incredibly safe in London, Susan...
It's all written down
As a country we have plenty money, £500 million to Ukraine deal done this week by our PM. He could have spent that money building council houses..Run by billionaires and expect them to have rhe publics best interests 😂😂. And rhe sheep keep voting for the same parties. How thick can you be.
It’s because it’s not the public that’s voting. 😅😴
who are you going to vote for then?
£500 million is barely more than pocket change, which you'd know if you had any familiarity with the scale of British government spending, so perhaps you aren't in the best position to accuse other people of being thick lol
😅@@Joseph_G
Logic doesn't exist in London
We don't need more properties, let's be clear under the current birthrate of citizens we should be in a population decline yet population is continuing to grow exponentially. Who are we building these homes for?
Crazy isnt it. They talk as if we have a housing crisis and we need to build more houses for british.
Lets be clear, houses arent being built for the likes of me. Theyre being built for people that weren't born here.
Stop the boats, get rid of the people who shouldn't be here and i might finally be able to be housed.
@@EskiLdn Young people including myself make up a humongous portion of those who cannot feasibly afford to own our own housing
Hall will lose big time.
Wait an see you might be surprised
I'll bet you 10 grand Hall doesn't win. She's hopeless.
@@DCDPM sorry mate l would but I’m skint l have to pay £12.50 a day to go to work and lm saving up in case khan gets in and l have to pay per mile and higher council tax. And to to it all l have to pay for three school dinners and my kids have left school
What can you do
He only JUST won last time, there are hundreds of thousands more people not happy with him this time for obvious reasons. He could well be history very soon.
We shall see…this time Khan has upset outer London.
I live in outer London. Before ULEZ the pollution level was 2 and now after ULEZ implemented is 2.
Yes, but Khan is now hundreds of millions richer, look forward to more empty cycle lanes and more LTZ closures.
londonman8688 is a bit salty in the comments lol
Yeah, not at all obsessed or unhinged… 😂
@@joex2004uk 😂
@@joex2004uk
You call people who don’t agree with you “unhinged”
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Highly unexpected……..
@@markscott6414 I call unhinged people who disagree with me unhinged, to be exact…
@@joex2004uk
We’re already planning our street party for when khan is out, I suppose you COULD call us extreme far-right, unhinged etc…..
2:30 it starts here
BRING BACK PROPER GOVERNMENT RUN COUNCIL HOUSING...Housing Associaitions (and things iike Shared Ownership) are a Sham.
Garbett basically lives on the moon
You don't need rent control. You just need to remove all those townhouses in the city and build midrise apartments. For example, West Kilburn. What are those low density residential doing in the city? Those are just 2 store residential buildings. Remove them. Build 5 to 8 store apartments. Belsize Park. Low density townhouses. Remove them. Build 5 to 8 store apartments. London is surrounded by low density townhouses. And you all wonder why there is no place for people?
keep the tories out
Because Kahn is such a people person 😂
Because it makes real sense to keep in a failed mayor!
@sallyarmstrong8612 in what way has he failed?
Are you serious? 🤣
Keep The evil KHAN out
6000 Homes, who would get it? Are there only 6000 renters in London?
I would assume most renters are already renting?
*U.K housing target only met by 1 person, the current Mayor of London*
I don't want Khan to win, but Hall's lack of figures is worrying.
Vote for Count Binface
Londoner's need a change
Ulez extension must go another unnecessary tax.
You don't even live in London so of course you don't care about the quality of the air its residents breath! If you want to operate your business in London and take the money of its residents buy a vehicle which doesn't take years off their life expectancy.
@@EstyVidswhy do you think only non Londoners are driving non compliant cars?
Can we all please take a moment to apologise for our social medias
The way Khan deals with homelessness is to remove their tents and sleeping bags.
Hall has got no idea about costings and she wants to be mayor of a city with a population similar to that of Portugal! Go figure...
If Rob Blackie wasn't lib dem but tory or labour he would win! Hopefully his voice gets heard more but the guy doesn't speak!
Paul Scully most be crying into his hands 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Lets hope susan hall didnt arrive by tube, as if she missplaces her bag again i wonder who she will say pick pocketed her this time
She probably walked unlike KHAN she’s not a coward and needs a bulletproof car and police protection
Speaking as a Landlord, if every Landlord sold up right now, genuinely just sold up and large percentage of the homes would either be derelict or bought up large companies with even more stringent and strict affordability requirements to the private renters. if councils bought them, the inflation would sky rocket as we're essentially a loss making country and borrow everything we spend. Not enough is done to protect Landlords and again the licenced landlord scheme is just another tax, it doesnt actually improve anything. Rent controls are impossible, interest rates, inflation and all kind of factors make up the rent however there has to be affordability guidance and rogue landlords need to be banned from owning multiple properties via a Ltd or personal name. Housing crisis requires more homes and people to have more money in their pockets but the rental sector requires landlords to be supported, tax efficiencies if you're a 40% tax payer and stricter controls for the tenants to protect them against dodgy landlords.
You really going to vote for someone with purple/pink hair. Insanity.
Wow crazy, hair dye 😱😱
I see that London is calling Rob Blackie because London fed up of pollution nd needs a clean up
The Conservatives only want to change things that help the rich. Most Londoners dont care about ULEZ. W e prefer cheaper rents than focusing on ULEZ. Go Zoe.
Khan needs to go. Nothing is ever his fault according to him. Time for change. Susan Hall for me to ensure Khan is ousted!
I am voting for Rob Blackie 🧡
Zoe for Mayor
Sadiq Khan comes across as patronising, the one candidate I felt did the best was Rob Blackie.
Tory-lite.
Worry about Sunak rather than Khan
There’s only one truly dangerous candidate in that studio.
how do you mean
@@macks702
I mean khan at his usual best calling Susan hall dangerous!
Susan Hall hasn't got a brain.
Andreas should’ve been there
37000 not finished homes
Remember the mess made by last Tory mayor. Keep the Tory’s out!
What mess? Please educate us
Still scraping the bottom of the barrel.
The air quality in London has considerably improved due to the implementation of ULEZ by Sadiq Khan.
Sadiq Khan's wise decisions have led to a significant improvement in London's security and health system.
London's connectivity was very poor in 2015 with frequent traffic jams, but it has improved significantly over the past 8 years, thanks to Sadiq Khan.
The youth street fighting that spread like cancer in 2014-15 is no longer a concern due to Sadiq Khan's efforts, and hate crimes have decreased.
Sadiq Khan's leadership has encouraged Londoners to be more proactive in reducing racial inequality, making the city safer for everyone.
Your commitment and dedication to the people of London are highly valued. Therefore, if Sadiq Khan is re-elected in the May 2 election, London will be one of the safest capitals in the world.
Traffic jams are the worst they have ever been in London and now our streets are the most gridlocked in the whole world thanks to Khans policy
Air quality got much dirtier after Khans ULEZ expansion and his money grab has led to thousands more children suffering with asthma but he hides this
This is why all candidates are promising to remove his ULEZ expansion which will help children breathe better air
Khans plan to make money by making children sick will be removed by all Mayors except Khan
What a whole load of nonsense and disinformation!
Hahahahaaa, deluded or what? You're living in cloud-cuckoo-land! 🤣🤣 Paid shill.
Where sangita
Free travel for asylum seekers - fantastic idea! Greens all the way
Sadick
Shameful on the broadcasters for not hosting the other 9 candidates!!
Susan Hall...what a grifter
// Congratulations you've got the tpry candidate formna U-Turn live on air //
Susan Hall is a traditional "boris johnson" style "bully them even if I have no facts to backup my case" politician. Which is precisely how Boris Johnson sold BREXIT.
Sadiq Khan is a facts and figures "civil servant" style politician. Civil servants usually lack the mental stamina to enter politics, in that respect Sadiq Khan is unique.
ed milliband stitch up was disgraceful
Nah it was hilarious
@@polarisnorth4875 ed is a hilarious idiot especially when he tries to eat a bacon sandwich
Anything but Tory. She's a night mayor.
Anything but khan.
@@jazzman554at least Khan has kept the fares frozen, unlike Johnson who increased them by 100% during his misrule.
@@MrDubmaster Vote for Count Binface but don't vote for Sadiq Khan
Sadiq I cannot understand what you are saying which is really crucial, you need to slow down, I cant hear 60% of what you are saying
Susan Hall crying about the cost of living 😂🤣😂🤣🤣🤣
……& the current mayor making it even worse for those who are already struggling more than you’d comprehend 🤣😆🤣🤣😆😆🤣😆🤣🤣🤣😆
Cost of living is high in all 1st world at the moment, trust a lie-bour mayor to put the boot in even deeper, in the name of “green”
Green meaning 💰💰💰💰💰
…& our friend made it a lot worse by charging the most poorly off £12.50 a day. Wadda swell guy!
I know it’s a shame she probably has to pay £12.50 a day like the rest of us

@@belindamarvel6329 do me a favor love and go and pray in your mosque for a decent mayor one that doesn’t steal from the poor preferably
He’s had 8 years yes 8 years and he’s done nothing just promised but never delivered

Fare freeze, superloop, council houses...
@@user-eg4dv1bm2e like I said he’s done nothing painting Boris buses and calling it super loop
Putting up most fares and freezing some KHAN is an absolute joke
I love ulez however eu vehicles don't abide by them

But nowhere near as bad as the lying little coward
SADIQ KHAN
she is not an ambuance chasing human rights lawyer
khan is a perpetual liar
she is honest unlike khan
@@londonman8688 yes if she’s terrible l would still prefer her than the lying little rat KHAN
Rob was quite impressive I thought, it at least cannot be Khan, he has failed on every level!
Agreed.
khan is a liar he has proven it time and again.
Zoe G won this
Pick your poison I guess...
Zoe for Mayor!
KHAN THE KHUNT NEEDS TO GO..
Greens will fund it by asking the government I give up
the Greens are looking forward to free bus passes to asylum seekers
Your ideological biases are showing…
Could you upload the UNEDITED version please !
It appears that Susan Hall's responses have been edited out !
I have calculated that 24 seconds of the show has been edited out !
Impartiality is an absolute MUST !
khan is the ultimate divider of london
Aside from the state of the candidates, this was poorly hosted. The questions were random and aggressive and the host regularly interrupted the candidates. Five incapable humans on a stage for the amusement of the general public
Why off of this is the only outcome that makes sense the Greens? (Words I thought I would never say in my life)
I agree, but with FPTP no one else gets a chance. It's either Khan or Hall
@@vietashroffoliver2521Susan Hall will be lucky to save her deposit nevermind win
Surely khan can’t get back he seems so detached from normal working everyday people I reckon give Suzanne a chance
Oh unlike sunak, a true man of the people lol. This woman is a total joke. The only thing khan is to blame for is not being white.
💯
I visited the future: Khan won
train fares are not frozen, khan lie
The ones under TFL control are, he can't conotrol the other train operators.
@@user-eg4dv1bm2e he increased the daily price cap on tfl, he increased the cost to heathrow. only pay as you go single fares have been frozen, khan has changed his campaigning to say most fares
@@user-eg4dv1bm2ethe trains freeze more often than the fairs
khan has ruined London!
(S)adiq (K)han (I)s (L)abour... Susan Hall Is Tory
Vote for Susan Hall, no one cares if she's in the Tory
Only candidate that keeps taking pure sense & is not a lonatic is the liberal democrat candidate
Fingers crossed for sadiq bro :)
Bet ur an Asian. The only reason khan gets in is because all u Asian Muslim immigrants vote him in & actual Londoners are a minority now. Actual native Londoners despise him!
sadiq khan pushed to lockdown london for longer and harder. then puts in congestion charge at night. khan kept pushing for work from home until only recently and wonders why london is no longer a 24 hour city
Yes and if we had done lockdown properly, we could have nipped the spread of covid in the bud and reopened sooner and got London moving again. What is wrong with working from home? get with the times - technology is the future and he is on the right side of history.
khan just smirks at the cost of living
Susan Hall was the only one who paid any concern to disabled people when others suggested walking and biking everywhere.
Why have a debate on the most lefty LBC what a biased interview
Tories chose their candidate not lbc
@@mohammedhussain6749 I’m talking about LBC the interviewer is so bias the channel is lefty liberal as bad as the BBC which have been reported so many times that’s why people have stop their TV license
@@iansadler9316he gave her every opportunity to speak and sell herself to the electorate but all she did is attack sadiq khan as opposed to presenting her own policies to improve London.
I agree with Susan Hall that rent Control will be difficult when Demand for Homes outpaces the Supply, building more public and private homes to ensure affordability is plausible.
free school meals make little sense. those who need it already get it free
I agree I think it should be generously means tested rather than free for all but better to ensure that all kids are eating than not
@@user-eg4dv1bm2e
There’s been mechanisms for decades to ensure kids from poorer backgrounds eat at school, khan is trying to get the glory & the votes for this but is wasting money only he knows how.
Iam white christian and i support Sadiq Khan
why does khan bash landlords rather than support them
Because many of them are profiteering parasites.
becuase landlords are a large part of the problem
@@isaacmcareavey237 landlords are leaving which reduces supply and pushes prices up .
Because he can’t be trusted will say anything to win votes
LBC gets a labour MP criticse hall, but no tory MP to disucss Khan. shocking bias
Because it seems like no Tories actually want to publicy associate themselves with her she is so terrible - she didn't even know how much the bus fare was when Nick Ferrari interviewed her on LBC.
Shame the host couldn’t be impartial.
