  • Should the Met be just for London?

    Should the Met be just for London?
    2026/01/31
    Nick regards the present accountability arrangements for policing in the capital as a mess, leaving London's Mayors having to accept a lot of responsibility for policing and crime while having few powers to go with it. The Home Secretary has just announced plans for reorganising and reforming police services nationally. Will they result in a better settlement for London?

  • Lewis Baston on the 2026 borough elections

    Lewis Baston on the 2026 borough elections
    2026/01/17
    Lewis is one of the most respected elections analysts in the country and On London is delighted to frequently publish his work. This year's borough elections are very likely to produce a very different set of results from those of 2022 or 2018, with Labour losing lots of seats. But the Conservatives might too, especially in some suburban boroughs where Reform UK poses a threat. And to which alternatives might voters who desert Labour turn?

  • Does Labour care about London?

    Does Labour care about London?
    2025/10/20

    Despite its numerous problems in government, Labour remains the most popular party in London. But is it taking the capital for granted? Is it even joining in with anti-London populism in order to win favour elsewhere in the country? And is it going to regret it?


    The brilliant Christabel, director of research at Labour Together, has answers to all of those questions.


    She also writes for OnLondon.co.uk.

  • Is the Fair Funding Review fair to London? With Tony Travers

    Is the Fair Funding Review fair to London? With Tony Travers
    2025/10/01
    Professor Tony Travers of the London School of Economics is the best person you could possibly have to explain the fairness or otherwise of the government's plans for changing how it contributes to the funding of local government. We also dipped into the government Pride in Place funding programme and consider whether that will do much for the Uk capital, which is rich in many ways yet also has very high poverty rates.

    2025/09/28

    Previously a school teacher like her dad, Hina Bokhari has been a Liberal Democrat Merton councillor since 2018, the first Muslim woman to win a seat in that borough. She was elected to the London Assembly in 2021.


    In our conversation she reflects on her party's recent conference, its attitude to London and hopes for making gains at next year's borough elections and speaks with feeling about the recent increase in racist incidents and flag intimidation.


    She also speaks up for the Labour Mayor following Donald Trump's latest insulting behaviour and recalls her father being a teacher and mentor to the young Sir Sadiq.
