Mr Khan will set out his four-year plan to improve the lives of those in London, with a special focus on youth.
London mayor Sadiq Khan will kick off his third term on Tuesday and will pledge to use the next four years to make London the “best city in the world to grow up in”.
He will say his work is about “giving the next generation a chance” and ensuring Londoners can reach their potential from birth to buying a house and getting a job. To achieve that goal, Mr Khan plans to provide free skills training for unemployed or low-income Londoners and create more than 150,000 new jobs by 2028.
“I will build on all the promises in my manifesto – including more funding for youth clubs, better mental health support and investment in high-quality mentoring – to ensure we’re truly giving our young people the best start in life.”Mr Khan plans to make free school meals permanent in London’s state primary schools
He vows to end rough sleeping by 2030 with government support, to build 40,000 new council homes by 2030 and to build new “rent control” homes.
