I marked Holocaust Memorial Day in the borough by participating in a walk around the old Jewish neighbourhood in Whitechapel.

It was fascinating to hear about the deep roots of the community in the old East End, which in recent history, were most powerfully exhibited in the Battle of Cable Street.

Finally, I successfully lobbied for the Bishopsgate Shipyard development consultation to be extended.
