Sir Keir Starmer and Sadiq Khan put on a display of strengthened ties at the London mayor's re-election campaign launch, following differences on policies including air pollution.
Sir Keir Starmer has praised Sadiq Khan's commitment to clean air in London after urging the mayor to 'reflect' on the expansion of the ultra-low emission zone last year. The divisive policy, which widened the area polluting vehicles could be charged to drive in, attracted fierce opposition from both Conservative and Labour politicians.
He said: 'We then expanded it to outer London and here's the great news - 19 out of 20 cars seen travelling on an average day are compliant... they don't pay a penny more.' ULEZ is not the only policy area where there has been a difference of position between Mr Khan and the Labour leadership in Westminster. The London mayor has called for a 'pragmatic debate' on re-joining the single market - something Sir Keir has ruled out.
