Personally, I can't wait to have SL13 - get a move on TfL - Make it Happen! www.timeout.com/london/news/...

They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them.

Today at City Hall, we came together at London's Remembrance Day service to honour those who have served our country. It was also great to see representatives from Brahma Kumaris and Neasden Temple from my constituency there as part of the ceremony.

Last week Neasden Temple hosted the Hindu Defence Network's Diwali celebration in partnership with the Ministry of Defence. As Remembrance Services take place across the country this week, it's great to see so many Hindus serving our country today across the Armed Forces and to see this recognised.

Laying a wreath at Brent Council's Remembrance Sunday Service at Barham Park. Thankful for those that gave away their tomorrow so we can have our today. #lestweforget

#LestWeForget With Gareth Thomas MP and the Harrow Labour team for Harrow's #remembrancesunday service by the Memorial in Harrow Town Centre. #WeWillRememberThem

Great to be out with the Brent Labour team in Sudbury ward this morning on the #LabourDoorstep Our local election candidates Greg Innes and Cllr Teo Benea are incredibly active and working hard for local residents.

It was great speaking to residents this morning in the Greenhill Ward #Harrow on local issues. Positive responses #Labourdoorstep with councillors and comrades. @HarrowLabour @navinshah-cbe.bsky.social @gareththomasmp.bsky.social

From tomorrow, earlier morning journeys will be introduced on the 683 and 688 school routes. The changes will enable students to attend morning prayers at the Jewish Free School in Kingsbury. tfl.gov.uk/modes/buses/...

The Mayor of London, Sir Sadiq Khan, was in Brent this week to announce a major partnership between the city's Violence Reduction Unit (VRU) and London United, the community foundations of all 17 professional football clubs in the capital, to boost efforts to tackle violence.

Out on the #LabourDoorstep with the City Hall Labour team in Westminster🌹

Following the announcement from the Metropolitan Police on Front counter closures in Harrow, I've written to the Commissioner to ensure: - the stations are protected and continue to serve as bases for the Police - technology is fitted to ensure access for people that turn up to Harrow Police Station

Out in Dollis Hill ward with local Councillors and taking forward local issues and concerns raised by residents.

Great turnout from the Harrow Labour family out on the #LabourDoorstep in Wealdstone South ward.

Productive meeting alongside fellow Assembly Members with representatives from @rcn.org.uk at City Hall about the issues facing nurses in London.

Great to be at Neasden Temple for Annakut darshan today. 🙏🏽

Loving the Annakut mountain of food display at Stanmore Temple. 🙏🏽Jay Shree Swaminarayan🙏🏽

Great to be at Mahavira Jain Temple in Kenton for the New Year.

Celebrating the Hindu New Year at Willesden Temple - The Annakut food display was incredible. Great to have Deputy Mayor of London Dr Debbie Weekes-Bernard visiting today. Wishing all celebrating a Happy New Year.

Diwali fireworks at Stanmore Temple never disappoints 🎆

Following a site visit with TfL officers and Police Officers alongside Labour Harrow Councillors a number of improvements were lobbied for at Harrow on the Hill station. Glad to see improvements taking shape with a new sign and brighter lighting at the Lowlands Road entrance.

Wishing you and your family a very Happy Diwali 🪔

Great to be at ISKON Bhaktivedanta Manor for Diwali #HareKrishna #HappyDiwali 🪔

Amazing Diwali Mela event at Kingsbury Temple 🪔

Diwali celebrations continue with the Hindu Forum of Britain's annual event at the House of Commons. 🪔

Great to see South Harrow alongside Willesden Green and Canons Park are having detailed feasibility studies on making them step-free. I'm continuing my work on making the transport network accessible for all and ensuring the Mayor meets his target to make half of all tube stations step-free by 2030.

Great to be at Byron Hall in Harrow for Katha organised by Vaishnavi Sangh of UK Trustees and volunteers.

A joy to see so many people representing organisations from across Brent & Harrow for Diwali at 10 Downing Street. Great to also hear from Government Ministers on the UK-India trade deal & the importance of our nearly 2 million people of Indian heritage in the UK in connecting the two nations 🪔🇬🇧🤝🇮🇳

Thank you @krupesh.co.uk for raising the issue of step-free stations, especially for Outer London. Step-free stations are vital to making the capital's transport network accessible for all, including older Londoners 🚉

Many congratulations to the Mayor of London @sadiqkhanlondon.bsky.social and the Diwali in London Committee for yet another brilliant Diwali in the Square event in the heart of our amazing Capital city. 🪔

On World Mental Health Day I encourage Londoners to learn how to help save a life by taking 30 minutes out their day to complete the #ZeroSuicideLDN training: thriveldn.co.uk/communicatio...

At #MQT, I raised the need to make transport more accessible in Outer London. We need more step-free stations so that everyone can travel with greater ease and I'm glad to see feasibility studies progressing for lifts at Willesden Green, South Harrow and Canons Park. youtu.be/QldHR6qs9QA?...

Great to be at Stanmore Temple this weekend where multiple trees were planted and volunteers offered their time to help clean and help in and around the Temple grounds as we approach Diwali. 🌳🧑‍🌾

2025 has been a remarkable year for women’s sport. London is proud to have welcomed the world’s best athletes and record-breaking crowds. Our city has shone as the undisputed global capital of women’s sport.

Great to be out on the #LabourDoorstep in Wembley Central ward with the Brent Labour team.

#Dussehra at Shree Swaminarayan Temple Stanmore this evening. Dussehra marks the killing of the demon King Ravana by Lord Rama and celebrates the triumph of good over evil.

I know Yom Kippur won't feel the same to Jewish communities this year and thoughts are with everyone impacted by this attack in Manchester. I welcome the Mayor's reassurance that resources are being stepped up to support Jewish communities and synagogues across London.

One of the best things about Labour Party Conference is meeting various charities and learning about their current campaigns and priorities. As @cityhalllabour.bsky.social's lead on health at City Hall it was great to speak to organisations working on health-based campaigns and issues. #Lab25

It was great to meet Indian High Commissioner Vikram Doraiswami at Labour Conference with @cityhalllabour.bsky.social colleagues @bassammahfouz.bsky.social & @annebclarke.bsky.social Our City's relationship with India continues to thrive & will be even stronger following the UK-India trade deal 🇬🇧🤝🇮🇳

An amazing speech from the Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer. A Prime Minister who is fighting for our country to Rebuild Britain 🇬🇧🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

TfL has shortlisted 15 tube stations where more detailed work to design and cost lift installations will take place. I'm delighted that Willesden Green, South Harrow and Canons Park have made it on to the list of 15.

Great to see violent crime with injury figures falling in both Brent and Harrow.

Great to see Gambling Minister Baroness Fiona Twycross at the Betknowmore UK stall at Labour Party Conference and discuss the impact of gambling on our communities.

At the London Labour reception with some of my City Hall colleagues in Liverpool for the Labour Party Conference. #Lab25 @metecoban92.bsky.social @bassammahfouz.bsky.social @joannemccartney.bsky.social @annebclarke.bsky.social @cityhalllabour.bsky.social

Honoured to meet the founder of Black History Month UK Akyaaba Addai-Sebo alongside Brent based broadcaster Rosemary Laryea. Fascinating to learn about what inspired Akyaaba to develop Black History Month and the support he received from the GLC at the time to help make it happen.

Back at SKLPC with @gareththomasmp.bsky.social for the largest Navratri celebrations in Europe

It's fantastic news that the government has announced plans to give communities greater control over the types of shops that open on their High Streets. This is particularly relevant for our area, where High Streets, have seen an unwelcome rise in the number of betting shops.

Can't believe Harrow Council leaders are continuing to defend this staggering waste of money. The planters situation in Harrow town centre is an absolute mess. harrowonline.org/2025/09/24/c...

Mayor for all Londoners
