My thoughts are with the victims of this latest antisemitic terrorist attack in Golders Green. In Hammersmith & Fulham, our message to Jewish people is we stand with you and will always face down antisemites and the hatemongers who seek to harm our treasured Jewish citizens.

Absolutely the right way forward for Britain. Thank you @SadiqKhan. Being in the EU would bring greater prosperity to the UKβs towns and cities, it would strengthen our security and offer all our citizens a much brighter future. The Brexit decade damaged Britain. Letβs fix that

The evidence is overwhelming: Brexit has been a disaster for London and the UK.
Rejoining the EU is now clearly in our national interest. The option to rejoin should be on the ballot at the next General Election.

Belarusians stand with the free people of Iran β not with the oppressive regime. The Iranian people deserve peace, full respect for human rights, and the long-awaited freedom they so deeply deserve.

H&F Leader @StephenCowan visited Fulham Cross Girls'β School last week, to introduce pupils to our new H&F Pathway Bond.
It's how we're connecting schools with businesses, and creating clear pathways for all the borough's young people into careers.

βIn the final death pangs of a regime they are at their most dangerous.β
The mullahs of Iran are pursuing a βscorched earth policyβ to quell the unrest, but there is an βamazing opportunityβ now to topple the regime, comedian Omid Djalili says.

The killing & brutal repression of peaceful protesters in Iran is horrific.
I have spoken to Foreign Minister Araghchi and told him directly: the Iranian government must immediately end the violence, uphold fundamental rights and freedoms, and ensure British nationals are safe.

It is important to make very clear that whatβs happening inside Iran right now is an uprising by the people, for the people. It is 46 years in the making. This is not a movement run by Israel or America as the Islamic regime in Iran is desperately trying to spin via our mainstream media. Having said that it would not surprise me in the least if in the coming days Trump also captured the Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and made him President of Venezuela.

The courage of the Iranian people is humbling.
The brutal response by the security forces is unacceptable and exposes a regime afraid of its own people.
The EU already has sweeping sanctions in place on Iran. We are now discussing putting additional sanctions.
