Ben Travis25 April 2016

In just over a week, Londoners will have their say on who the capital’s next mayor will be – and there’s a lot to consider.

Here to help is London Live with daily politics show London Votes – going through the ins and outs of the parties, the policies, and possibilities that the election provides.

On Monday April 25, host Daisy McAndrew is welcoming one of the key candidates into the studio for a grilling over his plans: Zac Goldsmith.

The Conservative politician is hoping he’ll win voters around, but McAndrew has some tough questions in store – including asking him about the fact that just a few years ago he said running for mayor would be a “suicide mission”.

Can he explain how things have changed for him in the intervening time, and what his plans for London would be if he were to be elected?

Also due to be discussed in the latest episode is an issue that affects every Londoner – the housing crisis. London Votes wil take a look at the different candidates’ plans to tackle the thorny issue, and ask where much-needed affordable housing could be built in the city.

Stay tuned to keep yourself as informed as possible ahead of the big day.
