We must unite against those who seek to divide us.

I know many people, particularly from London's diverse communities, are feeling extremely worried following the events this weekend.

It takes me back to how I felt growing up in the ’70s and ’80s, when
far-right political parties marched on our streets.

The leaders of the far-right are once again attempting to hijack our flag, with minorities being intimidated and fear, hatred and division being sown.

As Londoners, and as proud Brits, we must unite to reject the far-right
– just as we have many times before.

But it’s going to take a huge effort from us all – from people of all races and backgrounds, who are willing to stand up for our British values of equality, inclusion and mutual respect.

As Mayor, I'll continue to do everything I can to challenge the far-right and all those who peddle the politics of fear and division.

I urge other politicians and Londoners to do the same.

MAYOR OF LONDON, SADIQ KHAN

With London's incredible density delivering new infrastructure projects can be the wicked-est of wicked problems. We've built the Infrastructure Mapping Application to help speed up projects and reduce costs. Read on: data.london.gov.uk/blog/data-as...

"A set of six impact metrics, each represented by an icon and a corresponding value. The first metric, represented by a calendar icon, shows 'Collaborative Days Saved' as 1,323. The second, with a piggy bank icon, indicates 'Costs Saved by Collaborators' at £2.16 million. The third, shown with a house icon, represents 'Increase in Resident Wellbeing' valued at £7.23 million. The fourth, with a bus icon, measures 'Journey Time Saved' at 267,000 hours, equating to £2.02 million. The fifth, another piggy bank icon, denotes 'Business Losses Avoided' at £1.15 million. The final metric, represented by a green leaf icon, shows 'Carbon Saved: Reduced Trips' at 66 tonnes of CO₂.

Nearly two-thirds of London’s CO2 emissions come from buildings, with domestic buildings account for 32% of emissions. Identifying which buildings would benefit from retrofit is tricky, but luckily machine learning can help. Enter the London Building Stock Model 2: data.london.gov.uk/blog/london-...

ULEZ works. It’s that simple. Expanding the Ultra Low Emission Zone wasn’t a decision I took lightly, but the latest figures show that it was the right one for the health of millions of Londoners.

A graphic with a blue sky background and white clouds. The text reads: "Harmful NO2 levels are estimated to be lower in 2024 compared to a scenario without ULEZ". The reductions are listed as follows: Central London – 54% lower, Inner London – 29% lower, Outer London – 24% lower. A source link at the bottom reads: london.gov.uk/ulez.
