Today at Selfridges I set out our plans to rejuvenate Oxford Street as a world-class, accessible pedestrian avenue - a global destination for shopping, leisure, and outdoor events. This will attract more international visitors, investment and create jobs.

Oxford Street has been struggling over many years. The proposal to pedestrianise the street, backed by the majority of Londoners, will help bring it back to life. Creating a destination to shop, eat & socialise - boosting jobs and supporting businesses.

At Selfridges today I announced the results of the Oxford Street consultation. Around seven in 10 Londoners, and many major businesses, back our transformative proposals to regenerate Oxford Street - with two-thirds specifically supporting the idea of pedestrianisation.

Today I attended the Srebrenica Remembrance Service at St Paul's Cathedral. 30 years on, we remember the thousands of victims, honour the survivors, and reaffirm our commitment to challenging hatred and intolerance wherever it exists. 📸 Graham Lacdao / St Paul's Cathedral

Today at St. Paul’s we marked the 30th anniversary of the Srebrenica genocide - remembering the 8,000 Bosniak men and boys murdered because of their ethnicity and religion. As global tensions escalate, we must remember we have more in common than that which divides us.
