So, what happened to the 'Your Party's stream last night? Looked like another disorganised attempt at a launch to me. Although, no doubt conspiracy theories will be inbound. In other news @zackpolanski.bsky.social smashed QT last night...

I am not shy to say when I disagree with Sadiq Khan. But I also think it's important to say out loud when other politicians get it right.

This is exactly what the leader of a diverse and vibrant city like London should say. Thank you Sadiq.
