In this episode of The Big Picture, we sit down with Sadiq Khan for a wide ranging conversation about Labour’s election hopes, his political regrets and his vision for the future of London.
Sadiq Khan wants to make history by winning a third term as London’s mayor - but his confidence is shaky.
A winter of mass protests, a smear campaign in the media and a new set of voting regulations ushered in by a hostile Tory government have pushed him to rally his supporters not to take the upcoming May elections for granted.
On top of that, Khan’s trying to talk his Muslim base out of punishing him and Labour in anger over the war in Gaza, which he says would be politically naive.
So what’s he saying to his fellow Londonders to convince them otherwise, and what’s his view on Keir Starmer’s public positions since October 7?
