First pic: A low angle photograph, tinted beige-brown, of the two towers of the Marina Complex building in Chicago. It is unsual-lookingin that every level consists of disc or clam-shaped balconies, just hundreds of them stacked on top of each other. Second pic: A color photo of The White Stripes: Jack, white man with black hair wearing a white t-shirt and red pants and Meg, a white woman with long black hair wearing a red shirt and white pants. They are standing against a red wall and are being menaced by six figures wearing all black and black hoods, turning them into silhouettes, like what stage puppeteers wear. The ground looks like it has white paint spilled over it. Jack looks a little unnerved, but Meg is inscrutable, which is normal for her.

The term “witch hunt” is overused in politics. Perhaps not now. Quite a bit of the British media should ask themselves serious questions as to whether the coverage they gave to this man was remotely proportionate. Likewise there are Qs for Cambridge- and whether they discharged their duty of care.

The restoration of #HornseyTownHall is a success story - after two decades of false starts, political and community opposition and in the end some hard-headed council realism. I took a look @hornseyhistorical.bsky.social @natandoron.bsky.social www.onlondon.co.uk/charles-wrig...

There was resistance to the restoration being achieved by converting it into a hotel, but the outcome is surely a success

The report from the London AI and Jobs Taskforce makes one thing clear: the impact of AI on jobs is not predetermined.

I'm pleased to accept the flagship recommendations from the Taskforce and back them with £18 million in skills and careers support for young Londoners.
Graphic with image of a woman sitting in a factory typing on a laptop. Text underneath reads "AI is changing work. London is getting ready. / A new London AI Early Action System will help spot changes in jobs and skills sooner / Employers, workers and educators will help shape how AI changes jobs and creates value / A Future Ready Guarantee will help young Londoners build the skills and experience needed for tomorrow's careers" [Mayor of London logo]

We cannot allow a vile vocal minority to divide our nation. A lot of this content is illegal and Ofcom should be investigating.

Someone has to say it.

The amount of racism directed at World Cup players - including in the England squad - online is out of control.

Emergency hospital admissions fell after introduction of London’s T-charge and Ulez, study suggests
Emergency hospital admissions fell after introduction of London’s T-charge and Ulez, study suggests
Imperial College scientists analysed health records before and after introduction of air pollution reduction zones Low emission and clean air zones attract controversy whenever they are proposed, but there is growing evidence that they work in improving air quality. The Bradford zone was followed by a reduction of about 25% in GP visits for heart and breathing problems and survey data shows that the central London zone was followed by a reduction in the likelihood of a person taking sick leave. Now analysis of health records has found emergency admissions to hospital reduced after the introduction of the T-charge and ultra-low emissions zone (Ulez) in central London. Continue reading...

Prejudice toward one community is prejudice towards us all.
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.”

NEW: we're supersizing the Hopper fare to put money back into Londoners' pockets this summer.

Look out for our fun 🐸 buses.
Bold black text at the top reads “Mayor of London” followed by “Introducing: The Weekend Hopper.” Below, a green London double‑decker bus illustrated with cartoon frog features is shown with text along the side reading “Enjoy the Weekend Hopper this summer.” A green circular badge says “Unlimited bus and tram journeys all day long for one fare.” At the bottom, black text reads “Enjoy unlimited weekend bus and tram journeys for the price of a Hopper fare each Saturday and Sunday this summer,” followed by smaller text “Between 25 July and 31 August, including the late August bank holiday.”

London has been awarded the Lee Kuan Yew World City Prize 2026.

This prestigious award is global recognition of the work we’ve done to build a better London for everyone.

This shows what we can achieve when we work together.

Everyone is going to want to beat us in the Championship, the big scalp. The club needs a reset, didn’t have this biblical narrative in mind tbh. Gonna be disappointed if we don’t go down now 😂

Onwards. Downwards. Rain or shine or shitstorm.

No matter the embarrassment, misery or goading from rival fans, none of us are going to wake up one morning and turn our backs on them. As much as we hate what the club has become, it’s still our club. Every broken part of it.

Can’t control the football, can’t control any of it. So I’m left with one undeniable truth - I belong to this football club regardless and in spite of everything and anything. They chose me. There’s no escape. It’s my identity. I’ll always support them.

Beavers are back in London 🦫

Here's how (and why) we did it ⬇️
Four-panel image-led graphic. Left panels show David Attenborough wearing a beige jacket, seated outdoors beside reeds and water, smiling and gesturing behind him. Right panels show close-up photos of a beaver swimming and standing upright among tall reeds. Bold yellow caption text across the panels reads: “If someone had told me when I first moved here that one day I would be watching wild beavers in London, I would have thought they were mad. But there they are, right behind me. Happily going about their own business.”

NEW: London has recorded its lowest homicide rate since records began.

The evidence is clear - our approach to tackling violent crime is working.
Infographic titled ‘London’s homicide rate is lowest in recorded history.’ A line chart shows London’s homicide rate per 100,000 residents from 1997 to 2025. Rates peak around 2003 at just under 3.0, then steadily decline with small fluctuations, reaching 1.1 in 2025. Text highlights that the rate is 55% lower than in 1997. Caption notes targeted measures led by the Mayor and that this is the lowest per-capita rate on record despite population growth. Sources: Metropolitan Police Service and Office for National Statistics.

I welcome the Government's commitment to push forward with these plans, which I've lobbied for for more than a year.

This would be a major victory for Londoners.
