Mr Khan's salary has increased by just over £6,000 to £160,976 while at least eight of his nine deputy mayors, his chief of staff, deputy chief of staff, and three mayoral directors also received large pay hikes. Rishi Sunak earned £139,477 in 2022-23, though he does not claim the full ministerial salary. The average London salary is £44,370.
Details of the pay review emerged as Mr Khan announced that Shirley Rodrigues, the deputy mayor who was caught in controversy over the Ulez expansion after being accused of seeking to "quash dissent", has decided to leave City Hall.
Mr Khan's annual pay rise was not linked to him being re-elected for a third term last Saturday.
The Standard has learned that his salary increased by 3.88 per cent in December, taking it from £154,963 to £160,976. This was not publicised at the time, nor was the mayoral salary figure that is published on the Greater London Authority website updated. Mr Khan voluntarily took a 10 per cent pay cut for 11 months during the pandemic in recognition of the impact lockdown was having on City Hall's finances.
