Entirely right for Keir Starmer to call out Sarah Pochin MP’s blatantly racist comments. The fact that Nigel Farage MP hasn’t removed her whip, nor accepted the racist core of her comments, tells us all we need to know about him and his failure to lead. theguardian.com/politics/live/…
🇧🇷 The World Mayors Summit is here! Day 1 opened with a powerful plenary as the Mayors of London, Freetown, and Rio de Janeiro highlighted the bold and practical steps cities are taking to drive global progress. Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan Sadiq Khan Yvonne Aki-Sawyerr OBE Eduardo Paes #WMS25
Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.
The real weakness of the BBC, as exemplified by recent events, is its failure to stand up to ludicrous claims from the right that it is somehow hugely biased to the left. Listening to Telegraph journalists bleat about a biased BBC, or Reform MPs enjoying more platforming than any
London is much, much safer than comparable US cities. Not by accident but hard work by Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan London's Violence Reduction Unit Metropolitan Police and across many agencies as well as a good legal system. Still, every single incident is a tragedy - we must never rest until the numbers come down further.
When Sadiq Khan was first elected, experts warned it would take 193 years for London’s air to meet legal limits. 9 years later, thanks to our transformative policies, we’ve done it. Great to discuss this earlier on Politics London ✊🏽✊🏾
