London’s creative talent deserves the space to thrive. Through my Creative Enterprise Zones, we’re creating 71,000+ m² of workspace from Hounslow to Hackney Wick, supporting 1,000 businesses and helping 5,000 young Londoners into the creative industries.

Yesterday, London Fashion Week drew to a close – and what a week it was.

Every day, London's bus drivers help millions of people get where they need to be. It's only right that they have access to safe, comfortable facilities while carrying out this crucial work. We're investing more and moving quickly to improve driver welfare across the capital.

Safer schools start with every pupil feeling heard. Young people are twice as likely to be involved in violence after exclusion. I've backed my Violence Reduction Unit's Inclusion Charter and our partnership with UNICEF UK to help schools build belonging, like St Augustine’s in Kilburn.

Evidence shows young people are safer when they are in school. Since we implemented my Violence Reduction Unit's London Inclusion Charter, the rate of permanent exclusions, suspensions and persistent absenteeism in our city’s schools have all reduced.

Designing safer public spaces starts with listening to women and girls. Our new £15.6 million fund will put their voices at the heart of decision-making, building on the record-breaking £318 million we’ve already invested into tackling violence against women and girls.

One of the best things about living in London is the sheer amount of things to see and do, but for many women and girls, feeling safe within those spaces, as well as travelling to and from them is, un...

The story of London cannot be told without the story of Black Londoners. Black On The Square brought thousands of people together to celebrate the culture, creativity and communities that help make our city what it is today.

Every young girl should be able to see a future for herself in sport. That's why it's fantastic to welcome Athlos to London for the first time. This weekend celebrates world-class female athletes and sends a powerful message about equality, ambition and opportunity.

London speaks hundreds of languages. Soon, a few more voices will join the conversation. I’m partnering with London Higher to welcome international students whose ideas and experiences help make our city what it is.

London is open for business, and our best days are still ahead. At my annual Business Reception, I thanked the leaders helping drive our city forward. We have achieved a huge amount together. Let’s keep backing London.

Look up next time you're crossing Trafalgar Square. Perched above the crowds, Lady In Blue brings a fresh perspective to one of London's most recognisable landmarks. A bold new chapter for the Fourth Plinth programme.

Grassroots sport can change lives. A coach can become a mentor, giving a young person discipline, structure and purpose. At Ringside on the River Terrace, that sense of community and solidarity was on full display in support of Grenfell.

10 years ago today, the Hopper Fare transformed travelling in London. For the first time, you were only charged once for multiple bus journeys within one hour. Londoners have taken 1.4 billion hops since then. Taking just two hops a week will have saved you around £1500.
