Thank you, London. It's the honour of my life to serve the city I love. 🙏🏿 Today is not about making history, it’s about shaping our future. And I'll work relentlessly to shape a fairer, safer, greener city for every Londoner.

London and Barbados share strong bonds strengthened by our vibrant Barbadian community in the capital. Good to meet Prime Minister of Barbados Mia Mottley at #COP31 and discuss how we can work together to tackle the climate emergency and champion climate justice.

It’s not up for debate: extreme heat is already costing London billions. This summer's heatwaves are estimated to have cost our city £2.5bn in lost productivity. At COP31, I'm calling for global action to protect lives, jobs and our economy. bbc.com/news/articles/cwj3k5…

Great to be at the #COP31 World Leaders Summit with @SadiqKhan, representing London and @c40cities. Cities are on the frontline of the climate crisis, but we’re also leading the way with solutions that deliver cleaner air, lower bills and a greener future for all.

As someone who grew up in a council home, I understand the difference good quality social housing can make. Proud to accept the @UNHABITAT Scroll of Honour here at #COP31 - recognising our work to deliver a record number of affordable homes in London. I’m determined to build on this progress and work to ensure all Londoners have a safe, secure and affordable place to call home.

Delighted to meet with @LulaOficial here at #COP31. His re-election was a huge win for progressive politics around the world, and a defeat for those who continue to deny the catastrophic impacts of climate change.

Great to be at #COP31. This year has been another stark reminder of the devastating impacts of climate change, including the extreme heat experienced in London. We must go further and faster to tackle the climate emergency. The time for action is now - delay is not an option.

Brick by brick, we’re making progress on the affordable homes Londoners need. In some of the toughest conditions for housebuilding in years, 21,001 new affordable homes are underway - beating the target set by the government. insidehousing.co.uk/news/lon…

Since 2019, hospital admissions of young Londoners following knife assaults have fallen by 55%. This is what prevention in action looks like. With @SadiqKhan, we're building on this progress so every young Londoner has the opportunity to thrive.

The bond between two of the world's great cities continues to strengthen. Building on the discussions from my trade mission to Japan - wonderful to welcome Governor of Tokyo Yuriko Koike to City Hall - and discuss how deeper investment ties and the responsible use of AI can deliver real benefits for residents in both our cities 🇬🇧 🇯🇵

'How London has tackled its knife-crime epidemic' There's more to do, but delivering on a public health approach focused on prevention and working in partnership across London, the capital is turning the tide on violence. Progress with @SadiqKhan. In @FT as.ft.com/r/96af2be1-6da9-4d…
