    Following today's YouGov poll, a spokesperson for Ken Livingstone said; "Today, Londoners can vote Labour to cut their fares and save themselves on average £1,000, and in doing so ensure that the Conservative party is not rewarded. Every Labour voter must turn out today or the Tories will get away with it - they will carry on with policies that have led to recession, fare rises and police cuts." Ken has written a polling day message for Labour List this morning. He said, "By spending just a few minutes at the polling station the average fare-payer can make themselves £1,000 better off.
