Here’s what you won’t hear from some commentators on social media: in the year to October, London recorded 10,000 fewer violent crimes leading to injury than it did in the twelve months before I was elected.

'London is world's best city - people claiming it's lawless hate its success'

"Many American cars have their steering on the left side, the opposite of the standard right-side steering in Japan, where expressway tolls are on the right side, for instance". Nothing to do with the side of the road you drive on then?

This month I announced that London has met legal limits for nitrogen dioxide for the first time ever.

When I became Mayor, we were told it would take 193 years. We did it 184 years earlier than predicted.
London Ulez reduced nitrogen dioxide to legal limit, mayor says
The mayor of London says the fall in airborne toxins is due to the Ultra low emission zone expansion.

These new figures prove that when people are put at the heart of Oxford Street, the area thrives and businesses benefit.

That’s why I am moving forward with the next stage of my proposals to pedestrianise Oxford Street and revitalise the area as quickly as I can. www.cityam.com/oxford-stree...
Oxford Street pedestrianisation boosts sales, survey finds
Oxford Street was closed to traffic for eight hours on Sunday 21st September in a pilot test to fully pedestrianise the high street.

I knew that Von der Leyen's plane had had its GPS jammed, so as an engineer I read this article with interest, as it would be a lot more difficult to jam radar. It turns out that the first part of the article is wrong. The quotes make it clear that GPS was jammed, @rentouljohn.bsky.social

The Brutalist is a fictional story, but it is so deeply rooted in history that it feels real. Forget that the movie has a nearly 3.5 hours running time. This film is so wonderful executed that it doesn't feel that long. Adrien Brody is magnificent as an Jewish architect...

Wow!
Recent research by the National Centre for Social Research shows that young people predominately get their news from social media. 📰
We need to tackle the spread of misinformation and the far-right’s growing influence on social media. 📱

It’s high time we restore our young people’s rights to live, work and travel freely across the EU and give young Londoners and other Brits—and their European counterparts—access to an abundance of opportunities through a UK-EU Youth Mobility scheme.
