A momentous day for London. I’m so excited to see our plans to transform Oxford Street becoming a reality. And this is just the beginning.

"close by"
Dylan Lewis-Creser 💚@CreserDylanGrnOct 24
People acting like rejecting one supermarket is akin to starving people Not to mention that Bath already has a Lidl, so people still have access to them if they want to shop there! And close by! So much of modern planning discourse is fuelled by ideology over balancing things

Underratedly funny detail of this NIMBY extravaganza is that the Lidl literally would’ve been built with local stone

Instead of her trip to LBC studios maybe she could’ve volunteered at a food bank?

Under the Green Mayor Lewisham has lost a £1.5bn town centre plan. 1,700 homes. A park the size of a Premiership pitch. A music venue. 300+ trees. Approved under Labour. Shaped by 2,500+ residents. Landsec says the Greens’ refusal to back the next phase is part of why.

What an incredible day. I spoke to Times Radio, BBC, ITV, Channel 5 and LBC about the Bell Review It recommends including contemporary antisemitism in the curriculum. I hope my three years of campaigning played a part! I’m honoured to join the government’s implementation group

Great to be with and listen to @jonathanfrisher at LBC. So glad to hear the government is taking on the recommendations of the Bell Review. Jonathan’s campaign is brilliant and inspiring and I encourage all to listen to him speak about his experiences.

Rory Kinnear's prime minister in Netflix's The Diplomat has resigned midway through the fourth series because Britain having the same leader for four years was deemed too unrealistic. 🔗: telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/10…

Trafford Green Party: all 7 councillors signed this letter, led by group leader, Cllr Geraldine Coggins (Seen in London supporting Polanski’s bid to become an MP) Labour controls the council anyway but this seems significant from the whole Green group trafford.greenparty.org.uk/c…
