FACT: London receives far less government funding for its public transport than other comparable global cities.
Singapore: 79%
NYC: 62%
Paris: 62%
London: 28%
By underfunding TfL, the Government are putting our city and country's economic recovery at risk.

246 Conservative MPs just voted to protect one of their own after an independent cross-party committee found he repeatedly broke lobbying rules.

Leader of Labour’s biggest donor has doubled down on her pledge to break the law.

UK GDP rose 0.1 per cent in July compared to June figures released today show - a marked slowdown. Yes, consumption fell away - but no explanation can exclude 6.5 % fall in exports to EU while exports to rest of the world rose 5.0%. Brexit is a permanent drag on growth.
