London is the Higher Education capital of the world with more students, overseas students, academics, IP, institutions, spin outs, and academic firepower than anywhere else. @londonhigher @mayoroflondon @ldn_economy

Keir has given huge service to our country and I want to thank him for his leadership and dedication during such a challenging period.

His decision marks the beginning of a transition and it is important that this process is conducted in an orderly and responsible way. I will put myself forward as part of this process.

The country expects stability, seriousness and a continued focus on the issues that matter most and that is what it will get.

As we move forward, our priority must be to work together to get the country back to where we all want it to be. People want to see progress on economic growth, cost of living, public services, housing and opportunities for the next generation. Political change should never distract from the responsibility to improve people's lives.

The Labour movement has always been at its strongest when it looks forward with confidence and purpose. This is what we will do from here and we will make sure this transition is a positive process of renewal for our party and our country.

Last full Council tonight for me - 8 years ( plus14). It has been a privilege representing Custom House - and proudly leading Children’s Services from Inadequate to Outstanding. Stepping down but still a resident watching with interest!!!

[Sadiq Khan @SadiqKhan]

This is a cowardly attack on the Jewish community.

I am in close contact with the police who are stepping up patrols in the area, and I urge anyone with information to come forward.

Londoners will never be cowed by this kind of hatred and intimidation.

[James Asser MP @JamesAsser]

Eid Mubarak to everyone celebrating in West Ham and Beckton! 🌙

[Rokhsana Fiaz OBE @rokhsanafiaz]

✨Eid Mubarak to all celebrating Eid al-Fitr! ✨

Diversity is the heart and soul of Newham! ❤️🌙

Here at @NewhamLondon we’re proud that we support the vibrant faith events that make our borough so special.

From the magical atmosphere of Chaand Raat on Green Street last night to our communities gathering for Eid prayers in our parks, these celebrations show that our diversity is our greatest strength. 🌍✨

As a borough, we don’t just observe these moments: we embrace them as a time for reflection, unity, and coming together as one community to share in the joy of our friends and neighbours.

Check out plans for Eid al-Fitr prayers and Eid on Green Street this year:

☪️ Eid Mubarak from our LMN family to yours!

Wishing you all a joyous and uplifting Eid Al-Fitr, and praying all our fasts and supplications have been accepted this Ramadan.

[Imam Haque @Imam1816]

Eid Mubarak !

[Newham London 💙 @NewhamLondon]

Eid Mubarak to all those celebrating.

From Mayor @rokhsanafiaz OBE, Councillors and everyone at Newham Council.

[Sadiq Khan @SadiqKhan]

British values mean defending everyone’s right to practise their faith freely. In London, I’m proud Christians, Jews, Hindus, Sikhs, Muslims and others can celebrate in Trafalgar Square.

Singling out Muslims isn’t ‘British values’ - it’s prejudice.

[Sadiq Khan @SadiqKhan]

Lent and Ramadan coinciding this year feels truly special 🤍

Grateful to share moments like our Trafalgar Square @OpenIftar with Londoners from different faiths and backgrounds - not just tolerating, but respecting and celebrating each other.

[Labour Muslim Network @LabourMuslims]

Nick Timothy has an unhealthy obsession with Muslims.

His rant about Muslims and the @MayorofLondon praying in congregation in Trafalgar Square is a disgrace.

But if you think this is his first foray into targeting us, have a look below 👇🏼

💜 This #InternationalWomensDay we asked residents and staff across the borough to nominate their Newham Shero.

Throughout this week, we're sharing the inspiring women nominated - from neighbours and volunteers to teachers and community leaders helping make Newham stronger.

[Rokhsana Fiaz OBE @rokhsanafiaz]

🕊️Ahead of the National Covid-19 Day of Reflection on Sunday, this morning here in @NewhamLondon we marked the impact the pandemic had on our borough at our reflection garden in Plaistow Park.

Newham bore a heavy burden, recording the highest death rate in the country during the first wave. We remember every resident lost with love and a determination to dismantle the inequalities that failed them.

In the face of crisis, Newham’s spirit shone.

✨ 400+ Health Champions and thousands of community volunteers driving our mutual aid networks.

🍎 Our Help Newham Hubs in our schools and community centres, along with our Newham Food Alliance.

🏠 Love and compassion to our elderly in care homes, comfort for our youngster and housing to protect rough sleepers

💉 Doors of trust opened by faith leaders showing how Newham is a community of radical compassion.

Our diversity isn’t a challenge to be managed; it is our greatest superpower. ✊🏾✊🏻✊🏿

I want to say a profound thank you to:

That’s why our ‘Sacred Duty’ was to build a Fairer Newham because of the disproportionate impact of Covid-19.

We are investing in our young people and our inclusive growth and the wellbeing of our people to ensure that health inequality is never treated as inevitable.

Every life in Newham counts equally.

We Are Newham 👌🏽✨
