THE list of candidates vying for a seat in the London Assembly or to be the next Mayor of London has been finalised.
Details of the people hoping to be elected on May 1 were published on the News Shopper website on Saturday (March 29).
But the nominations could still be withdrawn up until midday yesterday (April 2).
Nicholas Eriksen has been withdrawn from the British National Party's (BNP) London-wide Assembly list.
This means Robert Bailey is now second on the list of London-wide BNP candidates.
A full list of candidates for both the mayor's job and the London Assembly can be found on the London Elects website.

Harry if you really need an answer to your last question then you are thicker and sadder than you have appeared so far.

The people of London are electing a mayor for our city who will be responsible for such things as transport, emergency services and major London-wide schemes. What's it got to do with you, just like what would the Mayor of Manchester have to do with me living in London? The London election doesn't affect you in the slightest or anyone else from outside London. That's why it's so depressing the BNP bandwagon-jumping knuckle-draggers have tried to infiltrate the current electoral proceedings. As it goes, immigration is not an election issue in the slightest because neither the Londom Mayor nor London Assembly have any say on it at all - but well done on dodging my earlier question all the same. I've always thought those who moan about immigration don't have a clue as to why immigration bothers them, other than because it involves 'foreigners' and people of a different colour to white.
Harry I don't have to live in London to be concerned about the rest of the country or are you one of those pathetic individuals who think that if you don't come from the South East your opinions don't count.

it\'s all very well people accusing each other of being racist or xenophobic etc etc but as a normal working family man, an English man, and a Londoner it\'s very worrying to read the BNP leaflets and find yourself halfway to agreeing with some of what they are saying even though their extremes ensure that I could never vote for them ever. Our way of life has definitely been degraded by immigrant influences of that there is no doubt. There was very little drugs and gun culture when I was growing up in the centre of London - the so called respect that people talk about now was an ingrained part of our society - we queued in the order of arrival at the place we were at and gave precedence to old and infirm. We deferred to people of higher intelligence than us and allowed them to become mainstream leaders and managers in our life by way of difficult University entrance qualification and hard exams.Some did it by way of family wealth but thus was always the way of any place in the world. At school everyone spoke the same language,English, including any immigrants, and we celebrated Christian festivals because that is what this country follows. Suddenly people like Livingstone came on the scene and realised that minorities joined together by a common theme would become a majority and by voting for him would keep him in power for a long time whilst the idigenous population would become of no matter. So all the donations to obscure organisations started. Gay Black Pensioners against the Bomb or something similar got 25,000 for a pop in parlour in Ken\'s first go at running London So out of London we all moved leaving room for more immigrants to come in and take up the housing, low paid jobs etc - I\'m sorry but I don\'t want my grand daughter taught by a woman in a burkha - I want old fashioned English values and education system to return - after all this is England. Oh and I want to be able to walk the streets at night without fear
