		</div><p>Passengers could be prohibited from travelling on Tube trains and buses in London without face a covering, Sadiq Khan has announced.</p>
<p>The capital’s mayor revealed he hopes to persuade the British government to change its position on the issue, but he has the option to “<i>make it mandatory in London only</i>”.</p>
<p>Existing guidance from Transport for London only goes as far as advising passengers to wear face coverings, which is in line with nationwide policy.</p>
<p>Mr Khan told the London Assembly: “<i>Next week I’ll be considering whether I need to use the option I’ve got to make it mandatory.</i>”</p>
<p>He said he will lobby the government in a bid to “<i>reach a sensible compromise</i>”, as he noted that some train services in London are not under his control.</p>
<p>“<i>We don’t want confusion</i>,” he explained. “<i>When there is a crisis, what’s important is to have message clarity</i>.”</p>
<p>Mr Khan went on: “<i>I leave the option available, which is to make it mandatory in London only.</i></p>
<p><i>“But I’m hoping we can persuade the Government to do the right thing.”</i></p>
