London Mayor Sadiq Khan, shown here on May 7, said it was time for political leaders who want the country to stay in the 28-nation bloc to present a more unified front. London’s mayor is pledging to fight to the bitter end to persuade voters to remain in the European Union in a June 23 referendum. Though Khan, of the Labour Party, has campaigned with Prime Minister David Cameron, of the Conservatives, such high-profile efforts have been rare. In a Channel 4 interview, Corbyn put his commitment to remaining in the EU at seven on a scale of 10. “I believe it is.”Khan’s remarks reflect the perception that the race has grown ever tighter as the vote draws near.
