À propos de ce contenu audio

The UK capital is routinely and sometimes mischievously misrepresented and misunderstood. This is bad for the city and for the country, which depends heavily on London's economy, its international character and its global prestige - even though it often fails to recognise this or admit it.


The True London podcast series is dedicated to covering London's politics, places and people accurately and fairly with a view to challenging false narratives about the city - and hopefully entertains along the way.


It augments and complements the output of the journalism website OnLondon.co.uk and the personal Substack of Dave Hill, who edits and publishes On London and presents True London.

    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
    Jan 17 2026
    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?
