4 London correspondent reports: The Tory plan to reshape London in their own image, to destroy Labour's grip.on the Capital — is having oa dam aging effect on Labour Partios both within London and in tha Greater London area, Tho effect of setting up the Greator London Council to supersede the L.C.Cs, the Middlesex County Council and the Metropolitan parts of Kent, surrey and Essex will mean that some two-thirds of the sitting members of existing authorities will ba pushed aside, The same is truce for the Grontor London Boroughs which are being set up by the forced amalgamation of the existing London Boroughs, The scramble for seats on tho new local authorities has led to some undignified scenes and quarrels behind the scones. The struggle between left and right has takon on a particularly sharp edge, as the right wing is trying to use its commanding positions in the Greater London Coordinating Committee (set up for salection of candidates) to ease out the loft over the Greater London area and replace them with "safe" councillors.
