Original Note:
It is not correct to imply that a different mayor would not be able to reduce crime. During the last Conservative mayoralty under Boris Johnson, the murder rate fell significantly, as did the crime rate overall. Knife crime also fell marginally. https://fullfact.org/crime/boris-johnson-mayor-crime/ https://www.telegraph.co.uk/politics/2019/06/12/boris-johnson-right-record-mayor-london/
