On @bbcnewsnight.bsky.social Reform's Zia Yusuf made false claim that most social housing in #London is occupied by foreigners. Chris Philp has done the same. It misrepresents occupancy data & calls British citizens born overseas foreign: www.onlondon.co.uk/dave-hill-ph... @mrjamesob.bsky.social
Philp's 'foreign' claim about social housing inflammatory and false
In his anti-immigration quest the shadow Home Secretary was either unaware or didn't care that he was misleading the country

Thanks to our bold policies, we’ve made great progress in cleaning up London’s air. I’m committed to doing the same with our rivers.
