When this election campaign started almost three weeks ago, we thought 13 of 15 members of council were going to run for their old jobs – then we got a change.

Susan Stevenson running for Mayor means the race in ward four is wide open. Tom Cull, who put in his nomination papers on the first day of the campaign, joined Craig to talk about the new race, what people at the doors are telling him and what he thinks the big issues are in London.
