Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan @london.gov.uk · 20/08/2026
The toxic air our children were breathing was stunting their lungs. For too many young Londoners, that was the reality before the ULEZ. New independent findings show their lung health has improved significantly in Central London. That’s the difference cleaner air can make.

Introducing Ulez was my hardest decision as mayor of London – but now we know its astonishing impact | Sadiq Khan
Critics said I was attacking motorists. It’s more important for me that the city’s children are no longer breathing dangerous levels of pollution, says London mayor Sadiq Khan

I still struggle to understand why the USA insists on using outdated temperature scales. We had 38° here. Unbearable

Research shouldn’t be stuck in journals and books. My latest funded project, Tappy Math(s), explores how we can take high-quality mathematics education research and turn it into practical, engaging resources for families and educators. Resources coming soon! #ResearchImpact #KnowledgeMobilisation

Its because they have been too bleeding old. The future is the kids.

One step at a time. Once other kids see the power of the masses they will join and it can be a united front.

Kids should walk out and go home and refuse to go back until the head resigns.

Yesterday I repeatedly said I was the most attacked MP in the UK. Which is true if you don't count the two who were killed, or those attacked with a sword or who had their offices set on fire and if you only count 'attacks' with milkshakes or eggs.

Let’s not fudge why Starmer is in this mess. Yes, he didn’t have political instinct. Yes, the public is much less patient and more critical. But Starmer was also - to use his own phase - morally bankrupt on key issues of the day, from Gaza, disability benefits, to immigration.

You seem to give the left in labour (which is now virtually non existent if you were to look) with some power. They have none. It was the 400+ MPs who saw his incompetence first hand

Fuhrage’s stormtroopers were out again I see. If you haven’t read the history of the rise of the Nazi party now would be a good time. Last time millions died. It’s happening again.

Can reporters stop using the word deal? It’s an agreement, a settlement, a treaty, an understanding, an MOU etc. Using the word deal is accepting his simple-minded TV game-show framing and contributes to the bogus drama he is trying to create.

How do you actually know? Of course you don’t do you? You are merely presuming because it fits with your narrative as some anonymous account

@zackpolanski.bsky.social : "Antisemitism and Jewish safety is not some abstract concept for me. In fact, in the last 6 weeks alone 2 people have been arrested in relation to antisemitic actions towards me and yesterday the Times newspaper published a vile antisemitic cartoon.."

Well you cannot have double standards and surely must be able to see the connection between the narrative of a rise on antisemitism as a ruse to ban protests at the way Israel behaves as a genocudal society.

So Ben you aren’t at all troubled at muslims being constantly attacked, murdered, raped, tortured by Jews? That is it. We can stop there. Unfortunately the terrorism from the evil state will not stop.

Spot on. But also claiming a jew committed a crime (such as murder, rape, torture or genocide) is also antisemitic

Quite. But Dorian isn’t interested in all that. The man has dark skin so he must be an anti semite to such people.
