'London is world's best city - people claiming it's lawless hate its success'
'The fact that London has again been crowned greatest city in the world disproves everything our critics claim, and they can’t stand it', the London Mayor Sadiq Khan writes
Hereβs what you wonβt hear from some commentators on social media: in the year to October, London recorded 10,000 fewer violent crimes leading to injury than it did in the twelve months before I was elected.

3 years ago, at the UN Environment Assembly, the world promised to #BeatPlasticPollution
Promises made need to be promises kept.
Together we can end plastic pollution forever, for everyone.
Today #INC5 talks resume to agree a #PlasticsTreaty to make this a reality.

βHere you have a man who was ambitious to be King of the people and he achieved it. So if anyone says that this desire is morally right he is mad for he is approving the death of the laws of liberty and is thinking that their hideous and detestable oppression is glorious.β Cicero about Caesar. 44 BC

I agree. We used to burn wood when I was working as a tree surgeon. Iβve come to see how bad it is for our lungs so stopped some years back. Electrical heating is better. 100 wind powered.

My photo shows a flint tool known as a laurel-leaf point due to its symmetrical shape similar to that of a laurel leaf. It was found in a cache of 16 expertly crafted points at Volgu, a site in Rigny-sur-Arroux, SaΓ΄ne-et-Loire, France. Masterfully shaped from a block of pale, translucent flint, the point is 28 cm long and 1 cm thick, with edges so wafer thin they are translucent. It shows no signs of use damage.
Dated to the Solutrean period of the Upper Paleolithic. On display MusΓ©e dβArchΓ©ologie Nationale, Saint-Germain-en-Laye.
Thirteen of the laurel leaf points from the Volgu cache are part of the collections at the MusΓ©e Vivant Denon, Chalon-sur-SaΓ΄ne, France and there is also a Volgu point in the collections at the British Museum.
Exquisite c. 20,000 year-old laurel-leaf point.
Expertly worked and aesthetically beautiful, this Solutrean flint tool is 28 cm long, just 1 cm thick, with edges so thin theyβre translucent!
From Volgu, France. MusΓ©e d'ArchΓ©ologie nationale Saint-Germain-en-Laye
