Cable Street

I attended the 80th anniversary of the 1936 battle of Cable Street on 9 October.

There were many Trade unionists, Jewish and Muslim figures and members of leftwing groups there and I also signed a pledge to combat racism and antisentism.

Tens of thousands of anti-fascist protesters clashed with police in Cable Street on 4 October 1936. They were demonstrating against a march by members of the British Union of Fascists, led by Oswald Mosley.

Night tube services on the Jubilee Line launched in Brent and Harrow on 6 October

The launch of the Night Tube on the Jubilee Line is great news for residents in Harrow and Brent. TfL’s commitment to staffing all stations throughout the night is hugely welcome, particularly as it will mean vulnerable passengers are able to access the support they need.

I understand that there are some concerns amongst local people about the possibility of crime and anti-social behaviour on the Night Tube. This is something I will be monitoring closely.

Tube services will now run on Friday and Saturday nights on the full length of the Jubilee line from Stanmore to Stratford.

TfL has confirmed that all the stations will remain staffed throughout the night and that services will run approximately every 10 minutes.

TfL say that they will be working closely with the British Transport Police and Metropolitan Police Service to deter crime and anti-social behaviour on the Night Tube. They have advised that local residents concerned about Tube noise levels or any other issues should contact their 24/7 Customer Services centre on 0343 222 1234.

I would like to thank the Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, for making this happen.
