Conservative Party Shortlists London Mayoral Race Candidates
Daniel Korski CBE is a businessman and political adviser who wants to "restore the London dream" sharing that he thinks "a fresh approach" is needed with "new technologies, and an entrepreneurial spirit."
It’s time to restore the London dream. That's why I’m standing to be the Conservative candidate for Mayor of London.

London is increasingly a Labour city, but more Labour has not meant a greater London.

Mozammel Hossain KC is said to be the most unknown of the three candidates and is a senior barrister.
Susan Hall AM serves as the London-wide Assembly Member and since 2006 has served as a councillor in Harrow, her campaigns for London Mayor aim to make the capital "safer with Susan."
Members will be able to put their questions to the candidates from June 12 to July 3 during Hustings.
Then, between July 4 and 18, members will be able to vote for their preferred candidate with the winner announced on July 19.
Sadiq Khan and I do not get on. I have been fighting him on the London Assembly for over six years. I am the only candidate he fears.
