After more than two decades at the Evening Standard, nine editors, three London mayors and 10,000+ bylines, it’s time for me to get on my bike…  It’s been an honour to have been able to report on the greatest city in the world. Thanks for reading.

@BrianColeman251 Well it’s a shame that, especially for someone with such a background, he failed to establish the basic facts before criticising my work in public. He could have made a complaint to my editor. But he didn’t do that either.

@RossLydall Nicholas was a Conservative MP , Junior Welsh Office Minister , a Lewisham Councillor and even a member of the Inner London Education Authority before devoting himself to Bromley where he has served as Mayor amongst other things

At a meeting of the transport and environment committee of London Councils on March 19, Cllr Nicholas Bennett of Bromley council made inaccurate comments about a report I had written for the Evening Standard in January about the Freedom Pass. I am happy to accept his apology.

Here at WCC we’re interested in road safety for ALL, so we were intrigued when a new (and bizarrely contentious) kind of crossing started popping up in our borough: the ‘Side Zebra’! There’s only 11 in London and they’re all in Westminster. So what are they and do they work?

Sadiq Khan's Oxford Street quango will not hold its first planning committee until July. Chief exec Nabeel Khan said it would be the "best-performing planning authority in the country". Until July, Westminster and Camden councils will be the planning authorities for Oxford St.
