London hopefuls do battle

GREEN London mayoral candidates battled it out in a lively hustings at the weekend.

The six candidates competing to be the party’s mayoral candidate came head to head on Saturday in their first major hustings event.

Councillors Sian Berry and Caroline Russell, party spokesmen Benali Hamdache, Tom Chance and Jonathan Bartley and activist Rashid Nix were quizzed by an audience of more than 200 at London’s Birkbeck University.

The discussion ranged from solving London’s housing crisis and tackling wage inequality to action on climate change as the hopefuls laid out their campaign priorities and vision for the future of London.
