For a Mayor who never stops reminding us he is the son of a bus driver, Sadiq Khan’s refusal to guarantee drivers’ rights in contracts is shameful.

Local businesses and residents have paid a heavy price throughout these works. I will continue pressing for proper compensation for those affected, as well as action over the impact the diversions have had on Havering’s roads.

🚦 GALLOWS CORNER IS FINALLY OPEN.
After over a year of disruption, the flyover and roundabout have reopened but for me, this is not the end of the Gallows Corner saga.

Meet @PeteReform, our candidate for Holborn & St Pancras.
As a former senior detective at the Met, Pete has first-hand experience in tackling organised crime and keeping communities safe.
He’ll put that expertise to work for Holborn & St Pancras.
🔥 Launders Lane cannot be allowed to drag on.
I questioned Sadiq Khan over the long-running problems at Launders Lane and have pressed him to lobby the Government to take action.
Residents deserve answers and action.
A Borough that is ambitious, well connected and proud of its identity with better communities, stronger local services and real opportunities for the future.
This is our vision for Havering to 2040. 🏡🌳

🚀 Launching The Havering Plan 2040: Creating London’s Super Suburb.
Our long-term vision is about making Havering an even better place to live, work, raise a family and build a business.

Havering must not be treated as a cash cow for inner-London.
If a tourist tax is introduced, money raised locally must be spent locally.👇

🍎🍯 Wishing the Jewish community across Havering and Redbridge a happy and peaceful Rosh Hashanah.
May the New Year bring good health, happiness and prosperity to you and your families.
Shana Tova! ✡️
Sadiq Khan wants to impose at least 73 additional permanent Gypsy & Traveller pitches on Havering over the next decade. The second-highest target in London!
I questioned why Havering is being asked to shoulder such a disproportionate burden.
✅ VICTORY FOR LAUNDERS LANE RESIDENTS
My amendment on Launders Lane PASSED at the London Assembly.
Residents have suffered for far too long. We now need Govt, City Hall and the relevant agencies working with Havering Council to deliver the funding and permanent remediation.
Good to see the new SL12 Superloop up and running in Havering but one route is not enough.
I’ll keep pushing Transport for London for a second Superloop to better connect the north and south of our borough and improve transport links for residents.
📰 My latest column in the @RomfordRecorder is all about Gallows Corner and our first 100 days running Havering Council.
Stronger action on HMOs and ASB, cleaner streets and restoring civic pride.
We’re getting on with the job. ➡️🇬🇧
