Mamdani, a Muslim and democratic socialist, was the clear favourite as polls closed at 9pm local time on Tuesday, having won broad support for his plans to tackle the escalating cost-of-living crisis in the US’s largest city.
He pledged to freeze rents, build more affordable housing, make buses free, provide free childcare up to the age of five, open non-profit supermarkets to cut food prices and raise the minimum wage to $30 (£23) an hour by 2030.
His platform also includes plans to halve fines for small businesses while raising the corporate tax rate and applying a wealth tax – a 2% increase for those earning above $1m (£766,000) a year.

In 1989, Francis Fukuyama, then a very young political scientist, declared that history was over. He wrote a book with the same title just a couple of years later. The Cold War had finished, the USSR had collapsed, liberal democracy and market capitalism reigned supreme, and it wasn’t going to change.

Emblematic of that has been the conflict between Russia and Ukraine which began in 2022, although of course, you can date that back to 2014 when Russia annexed Crimea.
