@BallouxFrancois Im from London and live and work here. It is not, by a long stretch, one of the safest places ive been to. It is a beautiful city in places but awful in others. Try being a woman and feeling safe in London.

I live in London, and I'm well travelled. London is one of the safest places I've ever been to. It is a beautiful, diverse and vibrant city and there's no 'no go' zone, absolutely none. Every bit of London, be it posh or poor, is remarkably safe by international standards.

'Sadiq Khan is worried people can see what's really going on.' Reform UK’s London mayoral candidate @policylaila discusses the Met Police's dismissal of a rape case as she outlines her concerns about rising crime issues in the capital.

@judeinlondon So someone on benefits gets their rent paid, free dentistry, free prescriptions etc etc. also gets things like reduced gym fees and other niceties. Someone earning £80k takes home around £50k of that and pays for everything.
English
Look if some mythical welfare recipient is getting £80k in benefits and you’re getting £80k in wage and theirs is going further than yours, instead of crying your eyes out about their £4 Tower of London discount, why don’t you ask them for budgeting tips

This Labour government is building a railway Britain can be proud of and rely on.🇬🇧🚅🌹

@MayorOfWY We all need a degree and days of planning to work out what ticket is cheaper and still 10x more than Germany
I had to argue today that if i buy 2 separate singles it is cheaper than a return. It is by £3.20 a day on my £33 A DAY commute of 25 mins.

For the first time in 30 years, rail fares are frozen in England 🧊❄️
We know good public transport is about much more than getting from A to B. It boosts our economy and connects our communities.
This fare freeze is a welcome step in getting transport back on track.

This is a former British Prime Minister, mind. Mad as a box of frogs.

The West Midlands Police have been completely captured by Islamists - now to the extent of producing false evidence. There needs to be a clear out of the Chief Constable and senior team. thetimes.com/uk/politics/ar…

@JohnCrookes7 He wont see the post and make sure your fat undeserved pension stays inflated. Always nhs workers or teachers that say things like this.

Right wing loons and racists detest Starmer because they can see he is turning the country round after 14 years of Tory chaos. Decent people admire and respect him. Ignore the speculation about any plots within Labour to remove him. It’s media hype designed to discredit him.

@JohnCrookes7 Typical narcissist post. Anyone that doesnt agree with you are obviously horrid/stupid/facists. When you are just virtue signalling anyway. Sticks and stones

Let’s wish a happy new year to very fine PM and truly great Brit. More of the same this year please Sir, the job is only half done!

@Heidi_Labour So my daily commute will be on sale? Great! Sign me up! Oh, it’s just on tickets for otherwise empty trains off peak to places we dont need to go.

The Great British Rail Sale begins next week. 🇬🇧🚄
Huge discounts will be available on more than 3 million tickets for travel between January and March.
We're tackling the cost of living and building a railway Britain can rely on.

@EsheruKwaku So it couldn’t possibly exist because you, for a short period in some unknown time period didn’t see it. Ok call off everything the tubes are fine we can all go on one random bloke saying something with no evidence and wanting for some reason to lie.

@pv1004 @ProtectTheWild_ You want people to suffer horrific injuries if they make noise for a few minutes? You seem nice. I personally don’t like fireworks but wouldn’t wish harm on another person for being inconsiderate
English
@ProtectTheWild_ I'm hoping anyone setting off noisy fireworks tonight has them explode in their face. There are silent fireworks available if you really must be a selfish piece of shit.
English
If you’re planning on setting off fireworks tonight just remember all your neighbours will know you couldn’t give a toss about animals.

@LaindonFEMINIST How will we spend this huge amount of ‘predicted’ money? We will have street parties with joy! I’ve ordered my rolls royce

@policecommander I was born in London lived here for 56 years. Ive been mugged, followed, harassed, intimidated and felt generally unsafe many many times. Good for your daughters they are very lucky and in a minority.
English
I’ve lived in London for over 40 years, and I’ve never had anything snatched from me.
My three young adult daughters have all lived here their entire lives, and they’ve never had anything taken either.
London is one of the safest major cities in the world .

Go to London: Get robbed This is why I left!!!! My first day being in a shop in London in months - and someone snatched my bag So thankful to not live here anymore.

@TedUrchin @Keir_Starmer All ‘you’ want. Majority of us have things higher up our list than something that will take a decade.
English
Yes, Starmer is a very decent man and, overall, doing a very good job.
All we want to see now is Brexit being totally dismantled.
I, for one, would then consider him a great leader.

Viviane: 🌹Labour led by Keir for me@LaindonFEMINIST
I probably missed Cameron, May, Johnson, Sunak doing this. Anyone got any photos? Obvs not Truss as she only lasted 49 days. It’s a nice gesture. I like that he takes time to do this. Decent man our PM.

@JosephW56436640 @JamesMelville Half a billion to live on? But thanks i won’t give away all my money but unfortunately green and labour seem to want to make me give away more to people they deem ‘deserving’
English
@addingtonsquare @JamesMelville You dont give all your money away in one go. You've got to keep some to live on, and you have to start off slowly.
