Constantly inspired by the @StAntsE7 choir who sang @The_Globe this morning along with a performance produced by @Rae_Griffiths highlighting the new £13.85 #londonlivingwage rate & in @howarddawber words our campaign to “ensure London’s growth isn’t built off of exploitation”

Don't want to be too boastful, but by this point in 2012, we'd had a funky Industrial Revolution, chucked the Queen out of a helicopter, rained down a thousand Mary Poppins and soundtracked it all with Fuck Buttons and The Beatles #olympics

Is anyone else tired and emotional today? The relief, the daring to dip a toe into the water of hope…Rwanda scheme scrapped - and then Andy Murray…the football…it all feels very tender 🥺
