I won my seat two and a half weeks ago - with Labour councillors elected in every ward in Ilford North and only three fewer councillors than we started with (on a shocking day for Labour nationally). Keep up! I'll be standing in Ilford North at the next general election.

Today, May 25, marks six years since George Floyd was killed by police in Minneapolis. In the midst of a global pandemic, we helped lead a movement that brought people into the streets across this nation and around the world to demand justice and accountability. That movement led to the convictions of the officers involved, but we still have not passed the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act. The struggle for justice cannot be seasonal or episodic. It must remain consistent, persistent, and unwavering. We owe that to George Floyd, and to every family still fighting for equal justice under the law.

Today, we remember George Floyd, who was murdered by a former Minneapolis police officer six years ago.   That moment changed our city forever.

No there will not be an early election. A man with 400 seats will not risk half of them three years early to satisfy columnists’ belief in mandate fairies.

In Northumberland Park this morning ready to speak to residents about the upcoming by election.

We’re just starting a whole day in Northumberland Park Ward talking to residents about the upcoming by election next month.

Every time my mum comes to stay with me we nearly always watch #RisingDamp - and #Columbo, #TheTwoRonnies and #Porridge. I have seen this Rigsby coffin episode many times 😭😆

Rising Damp (24th May 1977). When his latest lodger apparently dies, Rigsby - in a moment of generosity - decides to donate the coffin he'd been saving for himself.

Over the past ten years attendance per Premier League game is up by 14%. In League One, as England’s third tier is confusingly known, it is up by 47%. Register for free to learn why economist.com/britain/2026/0…

At least the husband is relieved. It was getting a bit tense in our household!

“World-class team in a world-class stadium?” Second-tier team in a track-and-field stadium. West Ham United relegated to the Championship at the London Stadium. Fans have every right to be angry. They turned up. But where was the real leadership in the club? Or on the pitch in recent times (Bowen apart)? No urgency in the first half against Leeds. Taty and Bowen gave brief hope. But they couldn’t rise to the equation. Spurs survive. Many reasons for West Ham’s demise: some iffy recruitment, some below-par coach appointments (Lopetegui, Potter), defensive issues, lack of direction from board, tensions between fans and Sullivan, as well as an unsuitable stadium (fans far from pitch, rental so difficult to generate money). Record losses. And revenue will be hammered by the drop. Who gets sold? Fernandes and Summerville will be top of many clubs’ shopping list. And the loyal Bowen? Does Nuno stay? Will the fanbase want him to? Does Kretinsky make a move to take over? Would Sullivan sell anyway? So many questions. Who can provide the answers? Who will stand up to be counted? West Ham need a reset, a rethink, improved recruitment and better leadership - on and off the pitch. Their fans deserve better. #WHULEE #WHU

SPURS SURVIVE THE DROP 🍿 They're staying in the Premier League.

This is an official government account in a democracy. This is what Orbanism looks like. The president bragging, via AI video, that he forced a comedian who mocked him off the air and ‘into the trash’.

My confirmation anniversary @StJohnsE11 on #pentecostsunday. May 24th 2009. 17 years' already 😱 Still so grateful to this fantastic church ❤️

Pentecost is when we mark the birth of the Church and the beginning of its mission to the world. 🔥🕊️ Today we reflect on the moment when the Holy Spirit came upon Jesus’ apostles and followers, as recorded in Acts 2. 📍 St Lawrence's Church, Evesham/Julian P Guffogg
