London is at a crossroads. After 25 years of #Devolution, the time is now for the next step.
Londoners want stronger powers: from housing & health to fiscal freedom inc a Tourism Levy, to invest in our city & deliver better services.
Trust London to deliver for our capital & the country.

After 14 years of Tory cuts to the Met Police, Labour's Mayor & Government are delivering record investment—finally turning the tide.
Scrapping borough front counters breaks the promise of the New Met for London plan.
This isn’t the policing Londoners voted for.

In London he did appear
To spread hatred and fear
But fare dodging's down, so he's wrong, poor sod!
