New research shows that Islamophobic and racist abuse has surged online. Here's just a snapshot my team has put together of the kinds of messages I receive on a daily basis. I highlight this because I'm worried about the impact on young people. A thread 🧵

Solidarity with Sadiq Khan in the face of this vile racist Islamophobic abuse. Online hate is relentless, damaging and has to be addressed.

I won’t share the abhorrent graffiti that defaced this play area but wanted to let concerned residents know that Hackney Council teams were out last night and again this morning to remove it. Everyone should feel safe to #play in #Hackney #NoPlaceforHate

As the Mayor to a city of more than one million Catholics, I want to express my sadness, and the sadness of all Londoners, at the passing of His Holiness Pope Francis. He was a man of courage and humility who demonstrated how cooperation between faiths was a force for good.

In acknowledgment of the passing of His Holiness Pope Francis, who so often spoke for peace, and to mark the loss felt by Catholics in the borough of #Hackney we are today lowering the flags at Hackney Town Hall to half mast.

Thank you Caroline Woodley for your leadership. Hackney is a No Place for Hate. Hackney Council is committed to ensuring that our residents feel safe both socially and personally. We will continue to work with the police and our communities to make Hackney a safe place to live,

Thanks to City Hall funding, children in London’s state primary schools already receive a free school lunch every day. Starting today, pupils at 80 of these schools will also benefit from a healthy breakfast too.

Today I joined colleagues and trade unionists to honour International Workers Memorial Day. Remembering those dedicated Hackney Council staff who we have lost, and reaffirming our commitment to protect workers' rights. #IWMD25

Strength in allyship runs through the joint statement from UK, France and Canada, on Gaza and the West Bank, but there’s so little time to get aid in as famine strikes news.hackney.gov.uk/news/statement…

I welcome the #spendingreview funding commitment to building much-needed council housing - to schools, SEND, clean energy and so much more. Now we wait for the detail. We need a fair deal for #Hackney and an inclusive economy that builds on Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan plans for growth

This morning, we welcomed leaders in local government to Leeds, to speak with Local Government Minister and Chair of our Party Jim McMahon MP. Our local government representatives put our values into place each and every day, up and down the country.

We’re building Community Britain, together. Co-operative Party council leaders are championing community power and delivering real change: that’s why we’re fighting to give them more power.

“It is those feelings of pride and trust that progressive politics should be trying to tap into.” 🗣️ Jim McMahon MP at our Local Government Conference today.
