But some believe Mr Khan’s record as Mayor, and anger over the expansion of the ultra-low emission zone , which sees drivers charged for polluting vehicles, gives the party an outside shot of winning big in outer London, as Mr Johnson did in his two victories in 2008 and 2012 in what became known as the “doughnut strategy”.
“But the whole electoral demography of London is changing, it is moving in a way that other cities have already moved – we’re not in 2012, it’s a very different set of circumstances.in a bid to recreate Mr Johnson’s wins was “probably about right” in terms of strategy, the insider added, noting that Rishi Sunak’s uncontroversial leadership could also help in outer London.
One senior Tory source said the party’s strategy could be summed up as: “Khan is ineffective and this is a chance to get rid of him” He acknowledged Londoners are “very frustrated” with the Mayor’s “mismanagement”, but stressed there is “absolutely an opportunity to defeat Sadiq Khan with the right uplifting message.”
