Over 100,000 for Hall and less than 50,000 for Khan.

Those extra 10k are not going to help cover her electoral humiliation, though

not entirely surprised, the ULEZ and 'pay per mile' bullshit have gone down fairly well in that sort of patch. expecting similar in the outer north east / north west boroughs as well.

I imagine BBC are trying their best to keep up with it all, but their latest update has it as follows:
Khan - 559k
Hall - 385k
Blackie - 79.5k
Garbett - 75.2k

Indeed the case with their last count, 12k for Binface, 10k for Scanlon!
Will state, according to BBC, no actual swing!

I thought they were saying 2.5% C->L overall?

yes, but the more tory / anti khan leaning outer suburbs are the ones that haven't been counted yet.

with this being FPTP rather than 1st / 2nd choice, don't know if some on the far-right are encouraging a tory vote this time round, though. there were visible 'vote hall' placards in the
Overall yes, but for Bex and Brom the percentages stayed pretty much identical.

Bex and Brom is extremely car focused due to their perceived limited public transport. It is exactly the kind of place where a threat to the motorist is taken as a threat to the soul by some. The fact buses are regular and efficient is not noticed by those who have never taken a bus.

Bexley is very Tory too. Except where we live in.Thamesmead but not a single Labour flyer.

Even the Tube can't be bothered to go there.
Anyway, Hall beat Khan by about 10,000 in Brent and Harrow. Once again the Count trashed the Nazi.

to a fair extent you are right, but there are bits of bromley borough (the old orpington rural district) like pratts bottom (street view here) which have a bus less than every hour (timetable here), although that's probably more than many similar villages outside london get.
bexley is generally more built up, and certainly on the crayford (bexley borough) and dartford (kent) border, it's hard to see the join. although then you get issues with the TFL regulated london bus services / deregulated non London services, and bus services across the border are more complicated.
there was a mayoral candidate a few years back by the name of johnson (can't remember what happened to him) who promised more / better bus services in the outer suburbs, possibly something akin to the recent 'superloop' sort of thing...

I didn't think that till I saw some equally batshit 'neck and neck' messaging a couple of hours ago. Easily swayed.
And in other news, I now know that batshit tries to autocorrect to 'catsuit.'

Johnson will make his Mayoral comeback in 2028.

more Hillingdon and Harrow that would be a ulez effect if you on the border and had to change you car and half you journeys are outside the zone guessing it would be a bigger issue
More so if you got to watch planes go over your head all day

More tfl services going out of London would be a godsend. A Brentwood - Upminster - Lakeside - Bluewater service being a case in point.

would have thought they would have at least made an effort in the labour-ish areas to get the labour vote out for mayor, even if the GLA constituency seat is a lost cause.
