- Over £100k worth of counterfeit or illegal goods on my table seized yesterday from American Candy Shops on Oxford Street by our hard working @CityWestminster trading standards officers. As I was telling @VanessaOnAir we need landlords to take responsibility about who they let to
- Statement on Night Stars volunteers by Westminster City Council. We are urgently pushing the police for proper answers. Our Night Stars do amazing work helping vulnerable people on the streets at night. westminster.gov.uk/news/statement…
- Replying to @AdamHugWe also need greater transparency in company ownership with further reforms for Companies House-the upcoming Economic Crime Bill 2 can help with that. The Government also needs to properly resource Companies House, HMRC and other agencies to take action to deliver.

- Quite the tonal shift between tweets: ‘we will kill all looters’ to ‘please keep investing in Kazakhstan’
- Replying to @robertsharp59 @CityWestminster and @VanessaOnAirSadly no golden tickets here- I’m not using trading standards officers to do a Veruca Salt
- It is a deeply emotional time as we hear that our amazing MP, my dear friend Karen Buck, has taken the decision not to stand again at the next election. She has been a true champion for our local area, someone whose kindness and commitment to social justice is unparalleled.
- The police have confirmed the three Night Stars volunteers will face no further action. I’ve written to the Commissioner setting out Westminster Council’s concerns over the handling of the matter & to request an apology to the Night Stars, something that has so far been rejectedAn updated statement from Cllr Aicha Less, Cabinet Member for Communities and Public Protection, following the arrest of three Night Stars volunteers last weekend. westminster.gov.uk/news/updated-s…
