London Mayor candidates Sadiq Khan and Zac Goldsmith took it in turns to visit Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis at his home in north-west London this afternoon.

The respective Labour and Tory MPs, who are vying for the mayoral position, met Rabbi Mirvis to discuss issues facing the Jewish community.

Mr Khan, Labour’s Tooting MP, met Rabbi Mirvis first, followed by Richmond Park and North Kingston Conservative MP Mr Goldsmith an hour later at around 4:30pm.

After the meeting, Mr Khan tweeted a photo of himself with Rabbi Mirvis, with a caption that read: “Good to discuss how I’ll be a Mayor for all Londoners with @ChiefRabbi Ephraim Mirvis this afternoon.”
