It’s one of those British tragedies that no one will forget. It’s there with Dunblane, Hillsborough, Aberfan. When something so awful happens, when children and families are lost.

The other week, I watched the final of the Eurovision with words from Graham Norton “here’s to all the naysayers who said we would never do well again in this competition” as the UK came a very respectable second to Ukraine. I must say that the comeback felt like the #LibDemFightBack or our recent #LibDemSurge!

Love them or hate them, e-scooters are a big topic for Londoners.

From the building safety crisis and holding the Met Police to account, to e-scooter fires, clean air and tackling Tory sleaze: read all about what Caroline Pidgeon and Hina Bokhari have been working hard on in the London Assembly.  Download and read the report here.

Lib Dem Hina Bokhari: "It is simply wrong that leaseholders and residents across London are living in fear over their building’s safety, whilst many leaseholders are also facing crippling bills"

Caroline Pidgeon: “The Government imposed fare rises on TfL services, which exceed those of rail fares around the country, bury the myth of any special treatment for London.”

“Do you think the allegations made by the Conservative MP Nus Ghani about Islamophobia will encourage change?” I was asked this question when I was interviewed last week by Coco Khan from the Guardian last week. My simple answer was ‘no’. Sadly, despite the clear racism and clear prejudices that this incident highlighted, the media attention was not really about Islamophobia. It was about the problems within the Conservative Party. To my surprise, despite this kind of article about the experiences of Islamophobia female politicians experienced was being written, I doubted this will raise the issues of rising number of racist incidents.

London Assembly Member Hina Bokhari has hit out at the Mayor of London today after being made aware that at least one property with flammable cladding is currently listed on his Homes for Londoners portal.

Caroline Pidgeon has called for the review into culture and standards in the Met to specifically include a commitment to look at homophobia, sexism and racism in the service.

The London Assembly has backed proposals put forward by the Liberal Democrat London Assembly Members for extra help to be given to leaseholders affected by the Building Safety Crisis.
