Spotlighting Mayor of London’s @LDNVRU’s MyEnds programme shows the positive impact investment into grassroots orgs, youth workers and practitioners can have. While Sadiq Khan continues to invest in youth services, his call on Govt for dedicated resource should not go unanswered.

What Frank Hester said is clearly racist.

Don't pretend you care about MPs safety if you can't call out racism.

You want to give millions to someone who hates 'all Black women'.

Rishi Sunak hand back his donations and rescind his Government contracts immediately!
