Why are the media focused on a ceasefire agreement when Israel says it will invade Rafah in Gaza regardless?

Isn't an Israeli invasion during a ceasefire contradictory?

Attention now should be on preventing further atrocities in Gaza. And prosecuting for crimes committed.

The Tories have changed the voting system for #LondonMayor so you only have one vote.

I would encourage everyone to vote tactically on 2 May to ensure we do not end up with a Tory Mayor.

That’s why Sadiq Khan has my vote.

A BBC Radio 4 Today package referred to a knife victim as carrying a knife 'as a younger man'.

But Mikey was 16 when he died. A child. Stripping kids of their childhood is something our society does in death as in life. Childhood is too often granted as a privelege not a right.

Make no mistake: the Tories’ introduction of photo ID is designed to stop younger and historically marginalised people from voting. Do not let them.

This Thursday:

🚨 You need to show photo ID at the polling station

🚨 You can only vote once - there is no second preference

ICC action against war crimes may damage chances of future war crimes .... Oh, but that's good.

Yep, funnily enough, the basic concept of legal deterrence applies to war.

Always a special place in my heart, East Greenwich 🌹♥️

As someone who grew up on a council estate, I know the difference a secure, decent home makes.

If I’m re-elected, we'll:

🏠 Deliver 6000 new rent control homes & provide free legal advice for renters

🏠 Build 40,000 new council homes

🏠 End rough sleeping for good

Another proud Auntie moment. My nephew? The one looking like a Viking right at the front-centre!

I still don't watch rugby though

Difficult decison around a re-design of a development on Garratt Lane, which will lead to 2 new stories to an agreed plan, but 'set back', so limiting visual impact, delivering 113 new council rent homes, which will assist our 3,700 homeless families.

Absolutely heartwrenching news to hear that Baby Sabreen has died.

She is one of 16 children killed in a single airstrike in Gaza, and has now died alongside her older sister and both parents.

This indiscriminate killing is barbaric.

Electric atmosphere at my third London Citizens Mayoral Assembly. Timely reminder of the progress we've made together on community land trusts, free school meals, the London Living Wage and more. Unfortunate that my Tory opponent refused to attend to do the same.

This election will be extremely close.

The Tories have changed the voting system & you only have one vote for Mayor.

If you usually vote Green or Lib Dem - please lend me your vote to make free school meals permanent, freeze TfL fares & get more council homes built. #BBCLondon

Jamaica recognizes the State of Palestine !

Went canvassing for them all and the wonderful jane briginshaw straight after for the West Putney by-election.

Disturbing reports continue to emerge about mass graves in Gaza with Palestinian victims reportedly found stripped naked with their hands tied, prompting renewed concerns about possible war crimes amid ongoing Israeli airstrikes, says UN rights office news.un.org/en/story/2024/…

Update: the Tory candidate confirms she won’t feed hungry children from next year.

The choice is clear: for free school meals made permanent, no ifs no buts - vote Labour on 2 May.

Excited to see this on Friday night!

To vote in the London mayoral election you will need an ID card.
