That’s where Earth FC comes in. In Rio de Janeiro, I joined young people and Brazilian legends at Fluminense's former home, Laranjeiras Stadium, to see how football can inspire action and bring communities together.

Hope or despair? That’s the choice facing the world at COP30 in Brazil. On the final day of the @c40cities.bsky.social World Mayor’s Summit, local leaders made it clear where we stand.

I spoke to Bloomberg at the C40 World Mayors Summit about how we can turn the climate crisis into an opportunity - building greener homes, creating new clean energy jobs, and protecting our planet for future generations.

From London to Lagos; Beijing to Bogota; Dhaka to Accra - cities are stepping up, taking the bold action this moment demands of us. At the C40 World Mayors Summit, I joined mayors from around the world to learn and share how cities are leading the way towards a greener future.

We need bold, ambitious climate action if we want to deliver a fairer, healthier future for all. Today at the @bloombergdotorg.bsky.social summit I listened to leaders on the forefront of the climate emergency who have pioneered climate policies to improve the lives of the people they serve.

I’m proud to support a new pilot scheme for London’s domestic abuse survivors. Too often, survivors are faced with impossible choices - returning to their abuser or facing homelessness. This new partnership offers an enhanced package of support when they need it most ⤵️

Partnership work is a key part of my strategy to tackle violence against women and girls. I’m committed to continuing to work with partners to explore innovations to ensure survivors can access the care and support they need, whilst working with the Met to go after perpetrators.

The climate crisis is the biggest challenge of our time, but sophisticated disinformation campaigns are threatening the ability of local leaders to respond. At C40's World Mayors Summit, mayors from around the world discussed how we can tackle disinformation and protect progress.

I spoke to Mayors from around the world about the growing threat of AI and fake news and the need for stronger protections against disinformation and lies.

Sending warm wishes to Sikhs in London and around the world celebrating Guru Nanak’s birthday today. His timeless teachings of equality, compassion and service continue to inspire millions. Gurpurab di lakh lakh vadhai!

I’m proud to be working with Airbnb and Women’s Aid on an innovative new pilot that will provide domestic abuse survivors, and their families, with free, emergency accommodation and the holistic support they need to recover and move forward. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Where would our city be without its transport workers? They keep London moving and as we’ve seen in recent days, they can be heroes in moments of real adversity. To every transport worker, from our bus drivers to our station staff: thank you for all you do. You are truly valued.

Mayors around the world are leading the way on climate action in the run-up to COP30. I spoke to Bloomberg from the C40 World Mayors Summit about how we are showing what’s possible - tackling emissions, creating good jobs and improving lives.

Thanks to our bold policies, we’ve made great progress in cleaning up London’s air. I’m committed to doing the same with our rivers. Our Clean and Healthy Waterways Plan will set out our priorities to reduce pollution, restore biodiversity and improve access to rivers over the next 10 years.

National governments continue to dither and delay on the climate crisis. At the @c40cities.bsky.social World Mayors Summit, local leaders are pushing ahead with bold action. When it comes to the future of our planet, now is not a moment to slow down, but to double down.

As Guy Fawkes Night approaches, the London Fire Brigade is encouraging Londoners to treat fireworks with caution and avoid the risk of injury.

Oxford Street’s Christmas lights are now on. Hundreds of thousands of stars have lit up the nation’s high street. Throughout this month London’s Christmas lights are coming to town and the festive period is the perfect time to enjoy everything the capital has to offer.

The C40 World Mayors Summit in Rio de Janeiro is a defining moment for city-led climate leadership on the road to COP30. It will send a clear message: in the face of growing climate denial and delay, Mayors are stepping up.

The climate challenge we face today is stark. It’s an existential fight between the climate wreckers and the climate defenders. At the C40 World Mayors Summit, we’re taking it on, countering denial and misinformation with hope and real progress.

As the world gathers in Brazil for COP30, the stakes could not be higher. Leaders must join together and do what it takes to protect the people we serve, and the planet we share. My op-ed with Mayor Paes of Rio de Janeiro for @NewStatesman. www.newstatesman.com/spotlight/su...

Great to meet with the Chief Secretary to the Treasury James Murray to talk about opportunities for growth in London.

I'm proud that London Poppy Day is Europe’s biggest street collection ⤵️ Thank you to all the Armed Forces and Poppy Appeal collectors out fundraising today. Let’s show our support and help the Royal British Legion continue its vital work for veterans and their families.

Today on London Poppy Day, I’m proud to support the incredible work of the Royal British Legion. Our armed forces make immense sacrifices to keep us safe. I know Londoners will once again show their generosity towards our veterans & their families at collections across the transport network.

How short our memories are. Just a few years ago, nurses carried this country through a pandemic, and now they're suffering a 55% surge in racist abuse. To every nurse: London stands with you. You are loved and valued, and always will be.

TfL is marking London Poppy Day with special announcements and designs to remember and honour all those who dedicated their lives to protecting our country. Collections will take place at stations across the network in support of the Poppy Appeal.

SXSW London brought creativity, innovation and excitement to venues across Shoreditch. I’m delighted that it will return to the capital in 2026. www.billboard.com/music/music-...

The way that support is delivered after a serious road traffic collision has a lasting impact. With TfL, Brake, and the Met Police, we’re committing to delivering the Road Victim Support Service long-term, ensuring that those directly affected receive the right support. tfl.gov.uk/info-for/med...

The Elizabeth line shows how quality transport infrastructure in London can unlock opportunities for people and places across the country. This vital work in Derby makes clear that investing in the capital’s transport network doesn’t just benefit Londoners but drives wider economic growth.

Harnessing the unrivalled role clubs and foundations play in fostering identity, pride and a sense of belonging means this new partnership could be a game-changer in our efforts to keep young people safe and supported to thrive.

Hurricane Melissa is bringing severe weather to Jamaica and across the Caribbean. My thoughts are with everyone affected, including British nationals in Jamaica and Londoners worried about loved ones. Please follow local advice and FCDO updates for the latest guidance. bit.ly/4hudYXg

With 51km of new cycle routes and 400 new pedestrian crossings delivered, TfL and boroughs are working together to make it easier and safer for Londoners to choose walking and cycling for shorter journeys - helping to build a healthier city for all.

It was a pleasure to welcome Japanese Ambassador, Mr Hiroshi Suzuki to City Hall today. London’s friendship with Japan is stronger than ever and our city remains open and ready to grow ties through investment, tourism and cultural exchange.

Good news - more than 150,000 Londoners are getting a pay rise as the London Living Wage increases nearly 7% to £14.80 an hour. Hardworking Londoners deserve a wage that covers the rising cost of living.

Shoplifting isn’t a victimless crime - it costs businesses, communities and jobs. With City Hall backing, the Met is cracking down on shoplifting, bringing offenders to justice and keeping Londoners safe. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I got my flu vaccine this week. I’d encourage all eligible Londoners to get theirs as soon as possible to stay well and strong this winter and be able to enjoy all that London has to offer. Book through your GP, the NHS app or online ⬇️ nhs.uk/vaccinations...

There can be no hiding place for officers who abuse their position of trust within the Met police. I will continue to support and challenge the Commissioner to rid the Met of all those unfit to serve to deliver a safer and fairer London for all.

Technology is transforming our city in ways I couldn’t have imagined even nine years ago, and London is leading the way. With our new Inclusive Talent Strategy, I want to ensure all Londoners have the skills they need to succeed so no-one gets left behind.

Today I launched our Inclusive Talent Strategy and committed £147.2m to fund a skills revolution. This funding will radically reform and transform our skills system in the face of a fast-changing economy, ensuring all Londoners are equipped for the future of work.
