Measles is a highly infectious disease. It can make children seriously unwell, especially young infants and those with weakened immune systems.
The best way to protect your family is by ensuring you and your children are up to date with your MMRV jabs.
Progress is being made on improving the culture & standards in the Met Police but there’s more work to do. The independent Fairfield Review will look at what has changed & wants to hear Londoners’ views & experiences of the Met. fairfieldindependentreview.org.uk/2026/03/05/l...
A major funding deal, supported by @mayoroflondon.bsky.social, is driving forward the next phase of a new, fully accessible Overground line set to transform travel & boost growth in west and northwest London

The future of Oxford Street starts here 🗺️
By the end of summer, the heart of the West End (Orchard St to Great Portland St) becomes a traffic-free zone. No vehicles, no pedicabs, just a world-class destination for Londoners.
Take a look at the first phase of the transformation:
I’m proud that @london.gov.uk is providing £7m to support the redevelopment of Jewish Blind & Disabled’s Fairacres building in East Finchley.
This funding will deliver 40 high-quality, sustainable and accessible homes, working with the Joel Emmanuel Trust. www.jewishnews.co.uk/multi-millio...
This is the biggest Passivhaus development in Europe, meaning residents will benefit from low energy bills.
It’s also fantastic well connected - a stone’s throw from Acton Town.
The site is the former home of TfL’s escalator maintenance service.
It was fantastic to be joined by Housing Secretary, Steve Reed, to officially break ground on 900 new Passivhaus homes at Bollo Lane in Ealing.
Delivered by a partnership between Places for London, Barratt London and MTVH, 50% of the homes will be affordable with funding from @london.gov.uk.
The ICC Women’s T20 World Cup 2026 begins in exactly 100 days and to mark the special milestone, London's host venues Lord’s and The Oval transformed their iconic scoreboards to start the countdown🏏

I was delighted to join with a wide range of Londoners for the annual British Asian Trust Iftar.
By raising funding and awareness for mental health programmes, the iftar is a wonderful example of how Muslims join together and give generously to help others throughout Ramadan.
