Fiyaz Mughal, Chief Executive of Enfield Citizens Advice Bureau and a councillor in Haringey. Mughal promises to "reduce and devolve urban planning powers to local authorities, push for further integration schemes for migrant communities and develop transparent recruiting procedures for Mayoral advisers."

Seemingly the intellectual heavyweight of the three, Fiyaz Mughal, chief executive of Enfield citizens' advice bureau, was quick to talk up his London roots, and delivered a similarly dry summary of why he should be the mayoral candidate.

So detailed was his pit, calling for a London based on "three things - fairness, social and financial equality and most of all social justice", his answers demonstrated a deep-thinking approach.

Mughal's promise to create a "united London of core values" saw him close the Q&A session with a hitherto undisplayed passion.
