Game keeper turned poacher. Or poacher turned game keeper. 🤷

@jonfeatonby @JoshuaNevett Oh reading this and remembering we were having the same conversation ten years ago…

[Alastair Harper @harperingon]

This is the best advert for the welfare state I’ve ever read. Decent social housing and broadcasting classical concerts on the BBC got us Paul McCartney. That sounds like a good return to me. https://t.co/8pasBE9QaW

[Alastair Harper @harperingon]

This is classic municipalism, casually improving people's lives without a fuss. Love to see it

[Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan @MayorofLondon]

We built these water refill points for days like today...

London now has over 4,000 free water refill points across the capital. Find your closest here:

And well timed for my first open water swim of the year. I know what a privilege this was and how many others should be able to enjoy it ❤️

[Alastair Harper @harperingon]

Couldn't be prouder of my friend @metecoban92 for showing why access to swimming is an issue of social and racial justice - that is why @MayorofLondon has prioritised cleaning our waterways https://t.co/r8jI9uwBDd

In the event of Nigel Farage facing a recall ballot in Clacton for secretly trousering £5m, how about Andy Burnham stepping forward as Labour’s champion to fight the seat and reclaim his place in Parliament? That is something that could unite us all against the real enemy.

[Alastair Harper @harperingon]

Two great appointments! If anywhere has gone well for this government it’s on energy policy and it’s not a coincidence that LCEF has been beavering away while those policies landed

[Labour Climate and Environment Forum @LCEF_UK]

🚨 NEW LCEF TRUSTEES 🚨

We're pleased to announce that Shaun Spiers and @KerryMP will be joining the LCEF Trustee Board!

We're honoured to have so much talent on our Trustee board, and we look forward to both Shaun and Kerry bringing a wealth of experience to the team.

Cleared on the day Streeting was due to announce? The writers of this crap need to learn that this is exactly what ruined Corrie

[Alastair Harper @harperingon]

And so, after a decade of chaos

Have written about the “Miliband Scenario” here

It’s never the right time to do the right thing. That’s why we should remember when a politician does it.

[Sadiq Khan @SadiqKhan]

When I was first elected, experts warned it would take nearly 200 years for London’s air pollution to fall within legal limits.

We did it in 9 💚

Good to speak to the Guardian about why bold climate action has been at the heart of my decade as Mayor ⬇️

May Day has always been a celebration of workers’ right - but today it also become a day for renters’ rights. 💪🫂❤️
Congrats on this huge achievement by many campaigners, several key heroes (they know who they are) and a progressive government!

[Tom Copley @tomcopley]

The Renters’ Rights Act comes into force today.

It’s the biggest leap forward for renters in a generation, and means London’s 2.7m renters have new rights:

🚫 A ban on no fault evictions
🐈 More rights for parents and pet owners
💷 Rent can only be increased once a year.

[Alastair Harper @harperingon]

I will always be here for MPs that actually understand policy areas rather than blunder about hot-taking. Uma has actually worked in this area and knows her onions

[Uma Kumaran MP @Uma_Kumaran]

Disagree. The climate crisis is very real, as is the energy crisis. We can’t keep going back to oil and gas.

The war in Iran has again shown in stark terms Britain’s over reliance on oil.

Sustainable, cheaper, greener energy exists, we need to invest in and understand it.

[Alastair Harper @harperingon]

It’s perfectly obvious that the best #snluk would have been Keir as working class as Prescott right until the false camera turn on. Let them know I’m available for how to make the soft left funny

No one should have to choose between keeping warm and keeping food on the table.

That’s why we created Warmer Homes London to cut bills and upgrade homes.

I saw it working first-hand in Leytonstone, where solar panels and batteries are already lowering costs ⚡️💚

Jolly things in the London and is a result of Sadiq's manifesto commitment to a Green Roots fund - https://t.co/AbrbkbZKA0

We've got a great slate of council candidates for the elections in May, but no one quite does social media like Highbury's Alastair Harper.

Great words from @SarahCoombesWB @Uma_Kumaran @AnnelieseDodds @rosie_wrighting on why what was decided in Belem matters in their constituencies #cop30 https://t.co/1i4vBozd0o
