Thank you, London. It's the honour of my life to serve the city I love. 🙏🏿
Today is not about making history, it’s about shaping our future.
And I'll work relentlessly to shape a fairer, safer, greener city for every Londoner.
Great to spend this evening in Islington, hearing from local residents and answering their questions.
From building record council homes to delivering a five-fold increase in cycle lanes to investing in new youth clubs, City Hall is working to make London greener, safer and fairer for everyone.
Thanks to everyone who joined us.

Stratford is one of Britain's most successful examples of transport-led regeneration, with so much more potential for growth. International train services would transform Stratford into a true European gateway, boosting London’s economy and helping drive growth and jobs.
Good news for Londoners: Thanks to our efforts, Stratford International is one step closer to welcoming international trains by 2030.
Direct links to Paris, Brussels and Amsterdam could unlock jobs, investment and growth across east London and beyond.
It's time for Stratford International to live up to its name.

A huge moment for London💛
From 26 October, Oxford Street’s transformation begins, creating a greener, traffic-free destination for shopping, culture and leisure
A better Oxford Street for all - new opportunities for businesses, jobs and Londoners ⚡️

Not only has the Elizabeth Line transformed how millions of Londoners and visitors get across our city - but it shows us how beautiful and passenger-friendly new infrastructure projects can be 💜
The Elizabeth line is the public’s all-time favourite @RIBA Stirling Prize winning project! 🏆💜
Two years after winning the prestigious RIBA Stirling Prize in 2024, it’s another proud moment for London’s transport network 👏

Lord @SadiqKhan is forging ahead with plans which could see international trains stopping at Stratford International Station within four years, @theLDNstandard reveals - story and video with @lukereevey standard.co.uk/news/london/s…
We’ve been working closely with the Government to make Stratford International station truly ‘international’ for the first time – opening up jobs, investment and tourism.
It’s time to write the next chapter in Stratford’s remarkable success story.
