I’m at the congress of the Party of European Socialists in Amsterdam - no Brexit here as the UK Labour Party is still an active member - with delegates and leaders from across Europe.
Warm welcome given to David Lammy.

When someone suffers a cardiac arrest, every second counts.
That’s why I’m proud to be partnering with the @londonambulance.nhs.uk and helping to fund 200 new defibrillators. This will help to ensure that every neighbourhood in our city has better access to this life-saving equipment.

Pedicabs could be a fun, quick and green way to get around London, but they’re currently unregulated, which can lead to antisocial driving, loud music and steep overcharging. So, we're planning to regulate pedicabs for the first time in London, to make London safer and greener.

🚍 Great to join @MayorofLondon at Stockwell Bus Garage to open @Go_Ahead_London’s new state-of-the-art Operations Control Centre.
This facility will help deliver safer, more reliable journeys for over a million Londoners every day - a huge step forward for our bus network. 👏

A really interesting afternoon spent at British Transport Police offices in Victoria. We spoke about issues facing London’s transport network including sexual offences and the recent rise in graffiti. We will keep working together to build a better, safer London for everyone.

Hungary banned anything that “promotes homosexuality,” which means Pride.
However, today over 500,000 people in Budapest told the government to fuck off. 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️

Incredible turnout and atmosphere in Budapest as huge crowds march in defiance of Viktor Orbán.
Mayor Karácsony has shown tremendous leadership, and the organisers huge courage.
It was an honour to march in solidarity with Hungary’s LGBTQI+ community.

At over 500m journeys so far, it’s already the UK's most popular railway. 🚆
