It’s Curious Cities Assembly day 1! What an incredible line up @cleancitiescampaign.org How terrifying relevant that we are here in this heat wave. We need to be thinking about how we move forward amidst climate breakdown … 1/? …

Just found out our brand new Green councillors here in Newham want to abolish our LTN, so that’s fucking great

One detail in this fascinating BBC investigation into the Russia-instigated attack on Keir Starmer's home is the way it shows, in passing but very clearly, that Tommy Robinson is to all intents and purposes a Russian asset. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Over 1500 London schools take part in TfL's Travel for Life programme - boosting active travel & improving air quality across the capital. It was a great to meet the 18 schools nominated for awards this year. Well done to all involved 👏 tfl-newsroom.prgloo.com/news/tfl-cel...

Stops and Stewart do their utmost to ensure London’s streets are hostile and dangerous for children, families, everyone who want to walk & cycle more. They have no intention in reducing road danger.

Sad to see anti-cycling campaigners Vincent Stops & John Stewart accusing us of some sort of cover up. We've been clear. Falling cycle deaths is good news, but rising numbers of serious injuries shows we've much more to do. Hence our new Vision Zero plan - inc more bike lanes.

If this isn't "designed to stir up hatred" against Jews, what is? Why are the Met not arresting them?

Yes I agree also, I think in general too much time on social media can skew politicians’ perspectives on voters in general and their supporters in particular

Our Labour Prime Minister listing some of our Labour government's successes at the Usdaw union conference yesterday. This is why we voted in our Labour government. This is why we still support our Labour government. This is why we will keep supporting and voting for our Labour government.

Following the horrific terrorist attack yesterday in Golders Green – which was the latest in a series of antisemitic attacks in our city – Jewish Londoners understandably and rightly want to see more action, not words. My statement:

Jewish Londoners should never feel unsafe in our city. After the attack in Golders Green, we must stand together against antisemitism and call out hate-driven acts. I’ll continue to work with City Hall and programmes to combat antisemitism and promote community cohesion.

The first really big test for Zach Polanski, & it's much more serious than 'but they want to legalise heroin'. Fast-growing, formerly fringe parties will inevitably contain some cranks & attract more. The test is what you do about it. www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Green candidates Sabine Mairey and Saiqa Ali have both now been arrested www.standard.co.uk/news/politic...

"Green Party candidates arrested over anti-Semitism" Saiqa Ali (Streatham) Sabine Mairey (Clapham Town)

Saiqa Ali, who is standing in Streatham, Lambeth, and Sabine Mairey, the candidate for Clapham Town, were arrested by the Met Police this morning

Two Green Party candidates for the Lambeth Council in London, Saiqa Ali and Sabine Mairey, were arrested for inciting hatred and antisemitism online. One of Ms Mairey's posts included a picture of a man holding a placard that reads “ramming a synagogue isn’t anti-Semitism, it’s revenge” […]

Remember the Green candidate who shared these posts? Mothin Ali, the party's Deputy Leader, spoke at a "Greens for Palestine" meeting at which he encouraged candidates who had been suspended from the party (she was one of the speakers) to seek legal advice. www.jewishnews.co.uk/green-deputy...

Clean energy will transform not just the way we power our lives, but will bring growth and opportunities to young people across the country. We caught up with @chrismurraymp.bsky.social who told us about how Edinburgh should be looking towards the future, and leaving fossil fuels in the past⚡️

Haha this is very validating

Lambeth’s nights just got an upgrade. 🌙✨ After years of cuts, the investment our young people deserve is finally here. Thanks to the Mayor’s new £30m ‘Youth Lates’ programme, Lambeth is launching a dedicated late-night space designed for the next generation.

The Lambeth Green Party have tried to block nearly 1,000 affordable & social homes for Lambeth families. That’s not progressive, it’s holding Lambeth back. Lambeth Labour are building the homes local families need.

Labour is lifting over 6,000 children in Lambeth out of poverty with the removal of the two-child benefit cap. This is the difference a Labour Government can make, working together with a Labour Council in Lambeth and a Labour Mayor in City Hall. Only Labour can tackle the cost of living crisis.

Great to be out in the sunshine in Streatham Hill East ward with activists and our Assembly Member @labourmarina.bsky.social speaking to residents and delivering our fantastic Lambeth Labour manifesto ahead of important local elections on 7th May🌹

It is a good day for kids: 450,000 will be lifted out of poverty thanks to the two child limit being scrapped as of today. We're celebrating this win along with 18 other organisations including charities, campaigners, unions and faith groups with a full page ad in The Times.

800,000 people who died because of the lack of lifesaving food and medical aid were unavailable for comment.

1/4 The Government's new integrated transport strategy, Better Connected, published today. Reading it with recognition as much as enthusiasm. A lot of what it describes is already happening in Lambeth! 🧵

Blows my mind how the Green Party across London essentially regularly opposes any serious attempt at active travel transformation. Projects that are a clear success - take Dulwich Village square for example - the Greens opposed. Not sure why they don't just change their name.

It’s official: we cleaned up London’s air 184 years sooner than predicted. The capital now meets legal limits for nitrogen dioxide air pollution. And you can feel the difference across our city.

Three years of The Big Shift has proven one thing: Infrastructure changes what’s possible, but community work changes what people do. 🚲🌱 love.lambeth.gov.uk/new-report-s...

Big news everyone 🔔🔔 I have exclusive info about the big Bayswater Road consultation that ended last month. And it’s in this highly influential publication that you might never have heard of – SEBRA magazine. Ae you all know, I’m a member of HCC. But I work in Marylebone … 1/15

“Badly parked bikes don’t just cause a nuisance, they are a serious hazard for disabled people, the elderly and parents with buggies.” That’s why Lambeth is going bay parking only. 🚲

True devolution requires funding, powers... and political support. Great blog here on what cllrs who are leading the way on local improvements need from central government.
