Lord Richard Rosser will be missed greatly by all who knew and worked with him.

All of our thoughts are with Richard’s wife Sheena and his family and friends at this difficult time.

If Hands had spent 1% of the effort he puts into party point scoring on persuading his govt to pay their fair share to fix the Bridge maybe we could have made more progress. So far H&F Council, despite having half its budget cut by that govt, has paid out £30m, the govt £13m.

It’s been over 5 years that Hammersmith Bridge has been closed.

I have been campaigning for its reopening consistently.

Meanwhile the Tories only come out at local or mayoral election time, pretending their dither, delay and inaction isn’t the reason repair costs are soaring…

Britain's bus services are in crisis.

Wishing everyone in Ilford South a very Happy Eid. As families gather to mark the end of Ramadan, this year let us remember those in Gaza.

I have been fortunate to have embraced the true meaning of Ramadan. Attending Iftars and celebrating what we have in common.

Eid Mubarak!

If you are able, please watch tonight Channel 4 9pm. A story of the local area in which our communities united in the face of far right abuse and violence. Against this backdrop, our parents brought us up to work hard and believe in a more positive and equal future. Darshna Soni

Today’s Tube strike has been cancelled, but strikes on national rail services are going ahead.

The difference is I will always engage with transport workers and our trade unions to try and avert action, while this Tory Government just sees them as adversaries.

It’s shocking so many of our young Londoners are facing difficulties. This is a crisis of the Tories’ making.

Today I’ve written to David Cameron.

We can’t have a Foreign Secretary dodging scrutiny on arms sales to Israel. He must:

- Publish the foreign office legal advice.

- Take questions from MPs in the Bar of the House of Commons.

- Unequivocally commit to international law.

You’ll never go in the water again.

New: This letter was just formally released with 37 additional Democratic signers including Nancy Pelosi.

If re-elected- my new London Growth Plan will create a further 150,000 high-quality, well-paid jobs by 2028.

We will support businesses, boost economic growth, and create the jobs of tomorrow for young Londoners.

3 British Humanitarian Aid workers have been killed in an Israeli Air Strike.

The UK Govt must hold the perpetrators to account for the deaths of innocent lives.

Now more than ever we must see an immediate ceasefire and ensure civilian Palestinians have access to urgent aid!
