Congratulations to Sagal. I wish her the very best in representing this amazing place. I'm proud of the campaign we fought. To go from 10% to 33% of the vote share during the PM's 'bounce' is good - but our ambitions are far higher.

Absolutely horrifying. How can our government be planning to drill for new oil and gas when we know these are the consequences? We have to keep the pressure on this Labour Government to keep all fossil fuels in the ground and secure a safe future for our children and grandchildren.

As we have experienced this week, extreme temperatures are no longer a future threat. They are a present danger. Today, I’m launching London’s first ever heat plan: a city-wide plan to adapt our capital, protect communities, and build a climate-resilient city.
Silhouette of Big Ben and surrounding London skyline at sunset, with a bright sun glowing behind the clock tower and casting a warm orange glow across the sky. Below, on an orange background, bold black text reads: “Get heat-ready, London.” Smaller text reads: “Heat Ready London will protect Londoners from hotter temperatures and help us build a more resilient city.” The Mayor of London logo appears in the bottom right corner.

Graphic from the Mayor of London with a grey background and black text. The heading reads “Mayor of London.” The statement condemns Islamophobic incidents connected to a far-right protest, says organisers came to spread anti-Muslim hatred and division, and affirms London’s commitment to inclusion. It calls on Londoners to show solidarity with Jewish, Muslim and minority communities and states that prejudice against one community affects everyone. The statement is signed “Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan.”
