Thank-you to everyone who made it along to the #Bishopsgate Wardmote today.

🤝 Some really useful engagement and a few take aways for us, as your elected representatives in the @cityoflondon.

Thanks also to the team at @botolph_s for hosting us. ⛪️

📣 The annual public meeting of #Bishopsgate voters & other interested parties (called a Wardmote) is taking place tomorrow, 21st March 2023 from 12 Noon at the Church Hall of St Botolph Without.
🤝 An opportunity to come & chat with your local @cityoflondon Councillors.

Thanks to @CMS_law @CPA_London for inviting me to speak on the City’s Policies which impact onto the built environment. A great buzz in the room as we explored Destination City, sustainability impacts on transport and how the built environment attracts growth in the tech sector.

I sat in a planning meeting yesterday where Councillors opposed to young people living in the City wasted 2 hours claiming new student accommodation couldn’t be built as the rooms didn’t get enough light and the local food was too expensive.

Good news for the City’s real estate sector, with tenants continuing to drive demand for high quality, sustainable office space. @BBishopsgate @cityoflondon #propertyinvestment #sustainabledevelopment #business #London #RealEstate

We are closed until 3 Jan for vital upgrades on the lines outside the station.

So we're having an early spring clean, focusing on areas that are hard to reach when passengers are here and trains are running 🫧🧹🧽

Here's some of our progress so far.

It's exciting to see 2 & 3 Finsbury Avenue almost ready for demolishing in November.
The new building, next to @UBS's 5 Broadgate, will include a 32-storey tower and will accommodate a broad mix of 5,000 occupants. The ground floor will include a range of retail units.

[Better Bishopsgate @BBishopsgate]

Our thoughts are with those involved this morning. We are awaiting further updates from the City Police.

[City of London Police @CityPolice]

We are aware of an incident this morning on #Bishopsgate. Our officers are at the scene and @Ldn_Ambulance are in attendance. A cordon is currently in place.

Such an honour to participate in the #Proclamation of His Majesty King Charles III at the Royal Exchange today.
A new King has ascended the Throne and the Caroline era has now begun.

Attending Civility in Politics Awards, a contrast to the conduct of Net Zero debates on social media. Pleased to see David Amess MP honoured. The last MP I hosted @cityoflondon and consummate exponent of polite disagreement in public life before his was cruelly taken away.
