Labour's Sadiq Khan has secured a historic third term as London mayor, seeing off Tory challenger Susan Hall.

It followed "wild rumours" the incumbent could have suffered a shock defeat, although both sides subsequently said they believedMr Khan would win.

He received just over 1,088,000 votes to be re-elected, a majority of some 275,000 over Ms Hall, who secured just under 813,000 votes.

Earlier in the day, Sir Keir Starmer said he was confident of victory for Mr Khan, who was first elected to the role in 2016.

The Labour leader said: "Sadiq Khan was absolutely the right candidate.

"He has got two terms of delivery behind him and I am confident that he has got another term of delivery in front of him."

The result comes after Rishi Sunak's Tory party took a hammering at the local elections, shedding hundreds of seats and losing more than 10 councils.

Meanwhile, Labour has made gains across the country, winning the Blackpool South by-election with a 26% swing, taking control of councils in key battleground areas and victorious in the three inaugural mayoral races in the East Midlands, the North East and York and North Yorkshire, a region which includes Mr Sunak's Richmond constituency.

Mr Starmer said: "This is effectively the last stop on the journey to the general election and I am really pleased to be able to show we are making progress, we have earned the trust and confidence of voters and we are making progress towards that general election."

Both Mr Khan and Ms Hallhad repeatedly clashed during the campaign, fought out amid concerns about knife crime and the handling of pro-Palestinian marches in the capital.

Just recently, Mr Khan had described his Conservative rival as the "most dangerous candidate I have fought against" over her past social media activity.

Hitting back, Ms Hall said she had "learnt" from her mistakes and branded his comment "outrageous".

A clear dividing line between the candidates had been Mr Khan's controversial expansion of the ultra low emission zone (ULEZ), which has been the subject of ongoing protests and which Ms Hall had pledged to scrap.

During the race, the Conservatives were forced to delete a clip used in an advert against Mr Khan's record on crime after it emerged it used footage of a stampede at a New York subway station.

Because jews have always operated by this since they got kicked out for the first time by the Romans. Kikes hate White people more than any other race in the world; they financed the Moors against Spain and enjoyed unique protections and ability to trade while muslims oppressed the shit out of Spain. That's why kikes and muzzies got expelled from Spain in 1492 and Spain finally got their Golden Age once kikes and muzzies could no longer exploit them. Jews would gladly sacrifice all of Europe if it meant getting their final revenge on Whitey even though muslims hate them far more, they're that twisted.

So because of a war that happened thousands of years ago, jews have basically hold an ethic grudge against white people, and everything bad that happened in the west throughout history is basically them doing nothing but trying to fuck over white people? Also Spain's Golden Age had nothing to do with kicking out jews and muslims. The Renaissance was spreading like wildfire across Europe, Spain at that time successfully finished the Reconquista, AND they discover the new world which they exploited for tons of wealth and resources. Nah that doesn't have anything to do with it, jews were definitely so powerful that despite being a minority managed to control an entire country to its knees by bribing muslims.

Every Limey who voted for this racially inferior, sawed-off, skit-skinned, mud-slime Third-World savage deserves a slit throat.

As I've already said in other threads - I'm a Londoner, and I voted for Khan.

Kill yourself, traitor.
