The battle for London Mayor looks to be narrowing with just two weeks until the election.

A poll has found Tory hopeful Susan Hall closing the gap on Sadiq Khan as the bitter campaign draws towards its conclusion.

However, although the YouGov research indicates the Labour incumbent's advantage has been cut by six points since February, he still enjoys a commanding lead.

Mr Khan, who is seeking a third term in City Hall, was on 46 per cent in the latest survey, with Ms Hall on 27 per cent.

The numbers underline the sense of gloom enveloping the Tories ahead of the local elections on May 2.
