โLawless Londonโ is safer than itโs been in decades
Official data suggests the capital may be safer than at any time in the past half century, comfortably beating other major cities
"While public concern often focuses on youth violence, today, a man aged 31 to 50 is more likely to be admitted to hospital with a violence-related injury than a boy aged 11 to 17."

"Before Brexit we didn't have a small boats problem because we had 27 return agreements with EU countries and we could return people"

Good morning.
Immigration is good. Trade is good.
There are nuances but they are narrow enough that free and open movement of people and goods should be the default.

Appalled to see this image of Donald Trump and the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein projected onto Windsor Castle.
Please... for the love of all that is good, do not share it on all your social media channels... because it simply wouldn't be done to remind the world of the association

Why arenโt there more police in this area? This is not the first time this has happened. Or are they too busy arresting peaceful anti-genocide protesters?

โYou are loved and wanted in Londonโ
Londonโs diversity shines in every corner. Celebrating events with neighbours of all faiths shows how cultures blend seamlessly here.
โYou are loved and wanted in Londonโ
Londoners come from every walk of life, from every religious, ethnic and social background and from all over the world to make up this fantastic city.
In these uncertain and unsettling times, I want Londoners to know that they are loved and wanted in London.
