Here in Islington, the message ahead of May’s elections is clear: if re-elected, @IslingtonLabour will continue delivering real change - from record numbers of council homes, to championing the living wage, to taking bold climate action.

Who says Londoners don't cycle in the rain? @IslingtonBC & @tfl have just delivered the new zebra parallel pedestrian cycle crossing and northbound segregated cycle lane on Cycleway 1 - enabling even more people to cycle safely in the capital. 👏@RowChampion & team

Angel, Camden Passage, Offord Road, Seven Sisters Road, Canonbury & others - & now Cally flooded! Until Thames Water invest their mega profits to replace Victorian water mains floods will keep happening. It’s a disgrace! Have we told them to invest more in replacing old pipes?

And ironically Thames Water are in the town hall tonight for a pre-planned scrutiny on what they do in Islington. I suspect there will be quite a few questions tonight about how on earth they have managed to flood the borough again.

@amandaakass It’s worth noting that @IslingtonLabour doesn’t just sign pledges, we take action. We have also taken all the reasonable steps we can to make a difference for Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank 👇

@amandaakass @IslingtonLabour This is in addition to starting the process of twinning with Aizariyeh in the West Bank.

Exclusive: Ahead of May’s local elections 1000+ UK councillors - around 5% of the total- have signed a “Pledge for Palestine” promising to uphold the rights of the Palestinian people and ensure their councils divest from investments/pension funds linked to the war in Gaza

Thank you @Georgia_Gould for visiting Laycock Primary to see how the school is providing an inclusive education for all children, including deaf children and children with special educational needs. We look forward to continuing to work with you to build a better system 📚 💚

NEW: London has recorded its lowest homicide rate since records began. The evidence is clear - our approach to tackling violent crime is working.
