• THE government has announced that the London mayoral and GLA elections will be going ahead on May 6.

Some readers may be concerned about going to the polling stations in person, having to wear a mask, and waiting to vote in a socially-distanced queue.

It will be much easier, quicker, and safer to vote by post. Residents can fill in a simple form to apply for a postal vote:

You can email your completed form to electoralservices@westminster.gov.uk or post it to Electoral Services, Westminster City Council, 14th Floor City Hall, 64 Victoria Street, SW1E 6QP.

Why take any chances when it is so simple and easy to vote by post?
