Eid Mubarak to all my friends in UK, Bangladesh, Dubai, Qatar, and around the world and to all London’s brilliant Muslim business owners. Wishing you a peaceful and joyful Eid al-Adha, and hoping for peace for all those affected by conflict.
@MayorofLondon
is right - we need a national plan to renegotiate and re-draw our relationship with our largest trading partner based on mutual respect and mutual interests, not knee-jerk isolationism. Time for the grown ups to take charge.

A grown-up approach to our relationship with Europe could turbocharge our economy, help raise living standards & unlock growth.

@londoncouncils
and London 's business community to ensure homes for all without damaging London'e economic infrastructure
The London Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) has warned housing reform proposals, announced by Michael Gove today, could “squeeze out” economic activity in the capital.
I realise I may have inadvertently started a caption competition here and yes, there are no hoops though which I will not jump to promote London’s businesses, thanks to Molly and Joel for showing me the ropes.
