We're launching our Parkwatch report today - the first data on who's really using the teenage facilities in parks. The results are both shocking and not surprising at all.

To read the full report and find out our recommendations, go to the website here:

Our Parkwatch report is coming out on September 27th.
The results are pretty shocking - girls really are designed out of our parks.

So if you're someone who might be interested in covering this, let us know, either on here or via the form on our site.

My decision to expand the ULEZ wasn’t easy, but it’s a decision I remain committed to. Cleaning up our toxic air cannot wait.

🚨BREAKING: ULEZ expansion can go ahead!

This is a huge win for the lungs of all Londoners - especially vulnerable children.

Politicians of all parties should now show the same political courage by taking action to clean the air across the country.
