Great to see @SadiqKhan's trip to Africa this week - the first ever Mayor to lead a trade mission to the continent. I know residents here in East London will be delighted to see his commitment to boosting trade, growth & using opportunities to further our relationship with Africa

Delighted that Cubitt Town Primary School in Tower Hamlets will be benefitting from @SadiqKhan's Greener Schools Fund. The Mayor's Fund helps make buildings greener with better insulation, solar panels & heat pumps - improving energy efficiency & reducing bills at the same time! @TH_Labour

Looking forward to supporting this event tmrw. @Dag_RedFC @DaggersTrust really impressed me with their work to promote community cohesion when I first met them a couple of years ago. Good to see that with their 10th Diversity Day they are keeping this up. Range of community stalls. Please support.

Great article! Will do all I can to help develop @EssexCricket vision from @LondonAssembly and as @EssexCCB Director. E Ldn Supporters Group and its growth- and that of our women’s team now based at Chelmsford ground- is key component of the dev strategy and I encourage supporters in E Ldn to join!
