Like lots and lots of others I’m now (for the time being, also) on here ⬇️ bsky.app/profile/sebdan…

And always a joy to see the legend that is #BusAunty

🐸 Delighted to be at Kew Gardens today with @MayorofLondon to launch the new Weekend Hopper fare. The new fare will make it even cheaper and easier to travel around London, so everyone can enjoy all our great city has to offer this summer!

NEW: we're supersizing the Hopper fare to put money back into Londoners' pockets this summer. Look out for our fun 🐸 buses.

Unia Europejska jest niedoskonała, irytująca, nudna, ale niczego lepszego w naszej historii nie wymyśliliśmy. Czas pokoju, dobrobytu, wolności, demokracji i solidarności między narodami przez wieki walczącymi ze sobą to cud. Niech trwa jak najdłużej.

The EU flag is flying at Hungary’s parliament again after Péter Magyar was sworn in as prime minister — the first time it’s been displayed there since Viktor Orbán had it removed in 2014.

Sometimes, we might take the EU for granted. But imagine Europe without the EU. What if the things that quietly protect and empower us every day suddenly disappeared? We must protect what matters to us. This Europe Day, let's celebrate our unity.

Today is Europe Day. And Ukraine is marking it not formally or through sloganeering, but fully aware that we are already an inseparable part of the European family. We are defending Ukraine, our independence, our future – and in doing so, we in Ukraine are defending our Europe. A Europe of which Ukraine has been and will remain a part. From the first days of the full-scale war until today, Europe has stood with Ukraine. And this is not charity – it is a choice made by Europeans: to stand on the same side as the brave and the strong – the Ukrainians who are fighting today for peace and true protection against tyranny, not only for themselves, but for the entire continent. And we will inevitably defend our state, our people, and our right to freely choose our future – a future in Europe. Glory to Ukraine!

Following the horrific terrorist attack yesterday in Golders Green – which was the latest in a series of antisemitic attacks in our city – Jewish Londoners understandably and rightly want to see more action, not words. My statement:

There has been an appalling attack on two Jewish Londoners in Golders Green. The police have made an arrest and I’d like to thank all the emergency services and heroic volunteers from @Hatzola @ShomrimLondon in the area for their swift response to this horrific incident. I’m in close contact with the @MetPoliceUK, who will be providing further updates. London’s Jewish community have been the target of a series of shocking antisemitic attacks. There must be absolutely no place for antisemitism in society. The Met have stepped up high visibility patrols in the area. I urge anyone who has any information to call police on 101, or contact Crimestoppers anonymously.

WHAT HAVE WE JUST WITNESSED? 🤯 Sabastian Sawe has just become the first person in history to run a sub two-hour marathon in race conditions. Yomif Kejelcha was also under two hours for second!

Delighted that @TfL will reopen the A40 Westway this evening after critical safety works. These upgrades will keep one of London's busiest roads running safely and reliably for years to come!

Minister for Employment Dame Diana Johnson visited @TfL to hear how they’re encouraging people with health issues to stay in work TfL is one of 150 employers committed to improving employee health as part of our Keep Britain Working programme ow.ly/r0VI50YJSWs

@MathOJames22 Quite right too

The 2028 Elections in London

I’ve made some decisions… the time has come for you to see London the way Mama Ru does From one icon - London’s transport system - to another @RuPaul: Shantay, you Stay! Good luck! And don’t f…

🚨 BREAKING: Keir Starmer says he will form a new partnership with the EU in the coming weeks "As the world continues down this volatile path, our long-term national interest requires closer partnership with our allies in Europe and with the European Union"

Great to officially re-open Cutty Sark DLR station yesterday! 🚆✨ Delivered earlier than expected, the upgrade means quicker, easier journeys to Greenwich - a great step toward a fairer, greener, better London for everyone.

Happy St Patrick’s Day, Europe☘️🇪🇺 Beannachtaí na Féile Pádraig, a Eoraip!☘️🇮🇪

⚠️ Important London air pollution update for Friday 6 March. ⚠️ I’ve triggered a high pollution alert due to a forecast of particulate levels mainly caused by Saharan dust. ⚠️ Protect the most vulnerable by avoiding unnecessary car trips, engine idling and burning garden waste.

.@TfL will soon be introducing pedicab regulations, phased over the next year. Clear standards for drivers, vehicles and fares will improve safety, ensure fair treatment for customers, and support a more professional pedicab market - and London's night time economy.

We're unlocking Step-Free access at South Kensington Station 🚇 Part of the @MayorofLondon & @TfL commitment to making the network even more accessible to Londoners. As well as delivering an improved ticket hall and affordable homes, part of our 'Places for Connection' Promise.
