On International Migrants Day, let’s celebrate the generations of migrants who’ve helped make London what it is today - the greatest city in the world.

One of my favourite traditions each year is my Christmas Carol Service at Southwark Cathedral. It’s a moment to pause and reflect, but also celebrate the Christmas story of love, hope and joy.

I had a wonderful time with South East London Community Energy & Flower & Dean Estate Paracarnival for the #MayorsCommunityWeekend. We celebrated what makes London strong – teamwork, talent, diversity, inclusivity. On a weekend when some came to promote hatred, these orgs promoted community & joy

This #ESEAHM2025, I had the pleasure of visiting the Philippine Theatre UK group. Through incredibly moving performances, they spoke about trafficking & exploitation but also joy & identity. A wonderful opportunity to celebrate ESEA community & heritage at the #MayorsCommunityWeekend

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

I’m pleased the government is backing London’s bid to host the 2029 World Athletics & Para Athletics Championships. London is the sporting capital of the world, where major events boost the economy and unite communities. We’re ready to host even more world-class events.

Londoners of African heritage help make our city the best in the world. Soon I’ll be leading the first mayoral trade mission to Africa, visiting Nigeria, Ghana and South Africa—to deepen cultural ties, boost trade and bang the drum for London. Great to kick things off at The Flygerians.

Temperatures have risen above 30°C today—an amber heat health alert has been issued for London. It's important we look after ourselves, and after those who find it more difficult to cope with hot weather: older people, babies and infants, and those with a physical or mental health condition.
