Khan's lead briefly narrowed in the wake of his party's anti-Semitism scandal last week, but his campaign appears to have escaped the row relatively unscathed. In fact, he has managed to erode Goldsmith's lead in the outer London boroughs from last month's poll, putting the two candidates neck-and-neck as the race entered its final stretch. Within inner London, Khan holds a comfortable lead of 43 per cent to Goldsmith's 21 per cent.
Trustworthiness appears to be a determining factor. Londoners trust Khan more on five key issues, including employment, transport and crime. When it came to the top issue of the campaign, housing, he is rated trustworthy by 32 per cent of respondents, compared to only 18 per cent for the Richmond Park MP.
