It’s time for a city government that puts affordability at the top of the agenda.

Greetings from Kyiv.
I’ve just listened to Zelenskyy’s address to the Ukrainian people.
My opinion?
This man knows what is right.
Ukraine is under enormous pressure from the current US administration.
Zelenskyy made it clear: he wants a decent peace. We all do.
Decent peace is not capitulation.
