    Calling all MPs: a third runway at cannot be reconciled with the UK's targets on either or air pollution. Please vote against it, as a matter of conscience. Calling all non-MPs: please RT this and press your representative to vote No

    Today I announced that if Parliament votes in favour of a Heathrow third runway, City Hall will join London’s local authorities in taking the Government to court on behalf of Londoners affected by poor air quality and noise disruption.

    Eight years ago today the Tories set their first austerity Budget, saying "we're all in this together". £110 billion in tax giveaways to corporations while cutting funding to our NHS, schools and police shows they've worked for an elite few, not the many.

  13. Only 12 months ago in the election the Tories were promising tax Hammond admits taxes will rise. Moral of the story. You can never trust the Tories. Where has the money gone? 8 years of tax cuts to the rich and corporations whilst cutting our NHS & schools
