Yes Covid 19 has destroyed his chance
[Former Tory minister Rory Stewart has quit
the race to be London's mayor.
Mr Stewart was running as
an independent candidate in the contest.
"I have decided that I will not be standing
again for Mayor in the now
delayed 2021 election," he tweeted.
"It has been a great privilege to work
with so many amazing people with
such passion and vision for London.
Thank you very much again from the
bottom of my heart."]

when it is back to normal and safe again, then he has ambitions to be mayor again
not now with all those covid germs out there, i can understand him (or at least how he appears to me on pictures alone, looks very frail, almost would think he would not stand a good chance of surviving covid himself)

That's a shame tbh
I had a look on the wiki for this year's mayoral race to see who the candidates are.
Sian Berry or Drillminster would be good. Shaun Bailey is ... okay on some stuff, stupid on others.
It'll probably be Khan again though...............

He has been useless so if he is voted back in it will not be because of his record as Mayor

Are you a Londoner? What's "the word on the street" about him?

I'd not heard of him before, nor seen him, I was just going by what wiki said about the candidates.

He would be my Mayor yes, I don't know anyone who thinks he has done a good job, cant think of one thing he has done apart from extend the already in place congestion zone
I took an almost instant dislike to him so I'm happy he isnt standing

Like sure he looks like a terrorist, but he's campaigning on:
reducing homelessness
Good
improving transport
Good
increasing mental health support
Good
diversifying the Metropolitan Police Service
Who cares, sure, why not
rehabilitation to curb crime
Yup
improving air quality in the capital
Great!
