Just over a year ago Sadiq Khan promised Londoners that if re-elected he would "put an extra 1,300 neighbourhood Police Officers and PCSOs on [London's] streets". In reality he has presided over massive cuts to Met Police numbers. London's Labour Mayor is letting down Londoners. We deserve better.

A 40% increase in people sleeping rough in Westminster in one year! Clearly, the Labour Council is not tackling the issue of rough sleeping and tents in our city. Damning for a Council that has had the levers of power for nearly three years.
