I am hearing shocking news that @CityWestminster have agreed to hand over #oxfordstreet to the Mayor under red route regulations! What happened to standing up to @MayorofLondon for our residents! How can you say it is needed as a Red route and pedestrianise Once we have full details I will share.

We welcome the ambition to update John Nash’s vision to connect St. James's Park to Regent's Park by improving the streetscape of Regent Street, Haymarket and Piccadilly Circus. We are however concerned that the traffic modelling, particularly for Great Windmill Street may not be showing the full impact of the changes. We need to ensure that all residents and local stakeholders are both fully engaged but also listened to during the upcoming consultation period which we feel needs to be longer as it is too short a time for local residents and businesses to consider the implications of these proposals. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

Let's never forget the profound importance of these commemorations. May we always honour the sacrifices and achievements of those who came before us. As we reflect on their enduring legacy, may we also find wisdom in their experiences. Wishing everyone a meaningful few days. #VE80 #VEDay #VEDay80

Some of my reasons for joining @westminstertory @Conservatives yesterday. Britain, London and Westminster deserve better. standard.co.uk/news/politics/…

@StJamesMatters @TheAbbeyCentre @westminstertory @CLWCA It was a pleasure to join the Abbey Centre volunteer team to spread some Christmas cheer.

🎄 Cllr. @timjmitchell joined volunteers to serve lunch at @TheAbbeyCentre’s 'Young at Heart' Christmas Party, on Saturday 14 December. ✨ The centre does crucial work to improve the heath and wellbeing of vulnerable residents by promoting togetherness and helping those in need.

@StJamesMatters Lovely to join many local people to celebrate Christmas. It was a treat for us all to sing carols alongside an impromptu choir made up of former choristers from Westminster Abbey Choir School.

🎄 Last night, the deputy Lord Mayor of Westminster, cllr Louise Hyams and cllr @timjmitchell visited The Onion Garden for their Christmas party. 🧅 Thanks to Jens Jakobsen's vision, a once unloved concrete corner has turned into a verdant oasis, in the midst of a bustling city.

Tragic to see report of fire at Somerset House. Hope that nobody hurt and firefighters keep safe. bbc.com/news/articles/… @StJamesMatters

@ianvisits @Dolichon @JohnHoCLibrary @StJamesMatters I completely agree but my point about the bike companies not moving the bikes quickly is key to tackling this problem @limebike @forestbike_uk

@timjmitchell @Dolichon @JohnHoCLibrary @StJamesMatters Most of the bikes aren't in the "designated space" though, and people using them shouldn't be duminng their bikes there if there isn't enough space. Tfl bikes don't have that problem.

This is just getting ridiculous, struggling to actually access the office

We have a new Lord Mayor! @CityWestminster members have voted for Cllr Robert Rigby to become the first citizen for 2024-5. Cllr Rigby said: "It is a huge honour and an enormous privilege to accept this role. Westminster is truly an international and multicultural city".

Wonderful to speak today at the Street Party for Lunar New Year of the Dragon organised by the Chinese Information and Advice Centre in Newport Place, London Chinatown. Excellent performances by members of the community. @ciacuk @StJamesMatters

Great privilege for my colleague Mark and I to join thousands on Sunday at the largest Lunar New Year celebrations outside Asia in Trafalgar Square #CNYLondon @LondonChinatown

Thank you to everyone who attended.

A cheery early sign of spring in St. James’s Square this lunchtime. @StJamesMatters

Great to see the Chinese New Year lanterns going up in London Chinatown today in preparation for the Year of the Dragon celebrations on Sunday 11 February @LondonChinatown @StJamesMatters

@CampaignTim @limebike @CityWestminster Spot on. Lime should be far more proactive in collecting their bikes where they are not parked in the designated bays. Also, moving bikes from overcrowded bays promptly. @StJamesMatters

Some more wonderful "parking" by @limebike on Strand in #London, this morning. Lime - you don't need regulation to know this is wrong. What action are you going to take against the users who left them there? @timjmitchell @CityWestminster

Great to be at the opening this evening of King’s College Glowbot Garden in the Strand: kcl.ac.uk/events/the-glo…. Do visit to see these extraordinary creatures from creative soft robotics studio Air Giants. Sorry for missing this,@CulturalKings @KingsCollegeLon #GlowbotGarden

@PDimoldenberg told me at a @CityWestminster committee tonight that buses are available in Westminster every 3 to 4 minutes. Afterwards I had the choice of waiting 15 or 22 minutes! Long waiting times for buses are on the rise. @StJamesTories @westminstertory

@StJamesTories @CityWestminster @westminstertory @AdamHug @limebike @CLWCA @Tony_Devenish The Westminster #docklessbikes parking scheme started five days ago, it is already obvious that 220 bays are inadequate and @CityWestminster need find more urgently.

We are troubled by the effect of the latest #docklessbikes parking scheme. Many locations have become hazards for pedestrians and drivers alike. We are asking @CityWestminster to review the parking areas and how they are managed, so that pavements remain accessible to residents.
