Illegal goods. A huge stash of cash. Serious questions about money laundering and illegal working.
I joined police and Trading Standards on Oxford Street to see what’s going on.
Shops breaking the law must face action. Honest businesses deserve a level playing field.

Lying by omission is still lying, Ben
You conveniently forgot to mention that Burnham, Rayner and Co. have just changed the funding formula to raid Wandsworth (and other frugally-run councils) by £84m per annum or more
We’re challenging this - you’re playing dumb games
Wandsworth's Conservative Council are planning a 94% Council Tax rise.
NINETY FOUR PERCENT. An extra £1000 on people's bills.
I'm the first to argue that local government is unsustainable on its current trajectory, but 94% is special. The biggest #CouncilTax rise EVER. And then blaming the government, when of course the previous Tory government did nothing about this either.
Look forward to seeing the massive media outcry on this one! Assume @SkyNews will immediately be sending in under cover reporters? I imagine they're assembling a left wing panel of guests to slate them on Cathy Newman's show right now. What do you think!? 🤔

Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The council tax rise is being implemented in response to an £84m cut to the funding that Wandsworth Council receives from central government. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

A must watch for every Londoner.
London is the greatest city in the world, but after a decade of failure by Sadiq Khan, we need a strong leader.
This person is clearly not it and Reform will be lucky if they come 4th.
If you want rid of Khan, Vote Conservative 🇬🇧

I've joined the leaders of @RBKC & @wandbc to challenge Government cuts which will take hundreds of millions of pounds from central London. It's not fair that Londoners - already paying high taxes & housing costs - should subsidise levelling up the UK

Leila Cunningham gives one of her worse media interviews to date and she has had quite a few.
This isn’t a car crash it’s a pile up.

Jesus Christ this is bad. It’s no wonder @policylaila never became a Tory MP like she so desperately wanted to be in 2024.

Westminster's streets are not a free-for-all 🚲
During our first 100 days, we've stepped up enforcement against badly parked dockless bikes to help keep our pavements clear and our streets safe.
We've:
✔️ Started seizing and impounding bikes left dangerously across Westminster.
✔️ Made operators pay to get them back.
✔️ Brought the UK's major bike companies together to demand better parking and stronger action.
This is about protecting pedestrians, improving accessibility and making sure companies operating in Westminster play by the rules.
We promised action in our first 100 days and we've delivered.
Find out what else we've achieved
