Hockney withdraws from mayoral race
Evening Standard27.03.08
One London mayoral candidate Damian Hockney has withdrawn from the race to run City Hall.
The London Assembly member said he was dismayed by his exclusion from mayoral hustings and the media focus on the main parties' candidates. Instead he will focus on fighting for his Assembly seat. He said: "With mainstream media increasingly focusing on the battle between Ken Livingstone and Boris Johnson, smaller parties are finding it almost impossible to get access to the key media outlets."
