Ten years as Mayor of the greatest city in the world. Through huge challenges and unforgettable moments, it's the honour of my life to serve London - a city that gave the son of a bus driver from a council estate every opportunity. @thetimes @DeccaJourno #Echobox=1779541171" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">thetimes.com/uk/politics/ar…






After Matt Goodwin’s absolute car crash of a candidature in Gorton & Denton, Reform went safe and picked a local plumber who they thought would go down well against Andy Burnham. Vile and highly offensive social media posts means Reform is now shielding the candidate from the media. I’m hearing from sources within Reform that they were surprised by the Survation poll that put them only three points behind Labour. Not only does their own canvassing put them further behind, but it also puts Restore on higher than 7%.







The warm weather has seen three consecutive days of Channel crossings totalling 912 migrant arrivals. This year there have been 8,488 arrivals - the lowest since 2023, although still clearly a massive figure. Shabana Mahmood will be hoping not to emulate 2022, when a *comparatively* low first half of the year ballooned into a record spike. 2022: 7,987 -> 45,755 2023: 7,395 -> 29,437 2024: 10,170 -> 36,816 2025: 13,617 -> 41,472 2026: 8,488 -> ?



Scorching weather, but great for campaigning. It has been a busy bank holiday weekend, but the reception has been fantastic. Thank you to everyone who came out to support us. Enjoy the long weekend.




When he resigned he said it was because he was being prevented from making the changes needed to bring down immigration. He is now claiming that he made the changes that brought down immigration. Both can’t be true.
