I think potentially Sadiq Khan might
0:01
feel quite relieved that he's not up for
0:02
re-election right now because the last
0:04
time he was it was pre pre-Labour being
0:06
in government. But we're now looking at
0:08
a situation next time round where the
0:10
current mayor could still be on the
0:12
>> It's interesting because I went to a um
0:14
press event with uh the mayor one of
0:16
these sort of annual journalist drinks
0:18
things he does a few weeks ago and he's
0:20
seemed remarkably chipper. I mean, when
0:21
you look at what Labour how Labour
0:23
polling nationally and the you know,
0:26
questions about the future of Keir
0:27
Starmer, he seems pretty happy where he
0:29
is. And Well, he would be actually if
0:31
you're not in the cabinet anymore.
0:32
>> but uh you know, I think there was
0:34
definitely a time earlier on in his
0:36
period as mayor where he was thinking
0:37
this will be a stepping stone towards,
0:39
you know, being part of the government
0:40
or being part of the cabinet. And
0:42
actually he looks at the state of the
0:43
government now and thinks actually, you
0:44
know, I'm I'm doing pretty well here.
0:45
And so I wouldn't rule out the prospect
0:47
of him having another term uh in office.
0:51
The question will be the caliber of the
0:53
candidate that is put against him.
