London hands down. The winter temperatures are very similar but London has way better summers and way more sunshine year round. I'm sure London gets more thunderstorms too even though their annual rain is a lot less.
Any vote for Toshavn would be indicative of the most bizarre and unusual weather preference. Torshavn probably gets a lot more snow than London (I think that Lerwick in the Shetland Isles gets a decent amount of snow by British standards), which is the only redeeming factor for Torshavn. I think that Torshavn could only meaningfully be used in a climate battle against places that are either very very hot and dry (Mecca, Dallol, Death Valley) or tundra locations (Alert, Nome, Nuuk)

I know- the whole idea was to create a bunch of pro-London polls for the ppl who complain that no one choose London in climate polls. See my London vs. Mecca and London vs. Vostok threads.
London obviously wins this one for being much warmer and sunnier year round. I would choose Torshavn over places like Quebec City and Winnipeg for having warmer less snowy winters and being warmer year round.
Not a single vote for Tórshavn; I wonder if PM would vote for it just cuz it gets very slightly higher snow accumulations in winter (which also gets quickly melted by cold rain) and has never ever had a heat wave (which London does get on occasion in summer).
