How will TfL bear down on fares and introduce more flexible ticketing from January 2015?

Mr Mayor, I think we have to draw an inference from what has been said about fares in this question. That is what the question was originally about. We have to draw the inference that perhaps the Labour Party believes that fares should not have risen at all since 2008 when you took over as Mayor of London. Can I ask if there is any estimate of how much revenue TfL would have had to sacrifice to keep the fares down for such a long period?

I would like to get some idea. Seeing as the headline of the question was “2016 achievements”, I would like to explore some of the things that you feel you are still looking to achieve by 2016, particularly in southeast London, which is the area that I represent. Obviously one of your very high profile transport achievements is the timely introduction of a New Bus for London. I would like to know when we will see more of the elegant and benign transport mode south of the river, particularly southeast London.

Mr Mayor, do you think it is actually important in your pursuit of the Estuary Airport that everybody should be reminded it is not your scheme but is actually Foster’s scheme? I am afraid your scheme we are not talking about much anymore, but it is the Foster’s scheme ‑‑

Boris, a large number of my constituents use the buses to get around boroughs like Havering and Redbridge because the rail links tend to be radial into town. So the announcement you have made today about the progress you are requesting towards resolving the strike is very welcome and I am sure they will be happy to hear that statement. But do you not share my surprise that the unions who were spending July campaigning for large amounts of money for working in the Olympics spent April campaigning for a candidate who was promising to slash public transport fares?

Could you write to me, Mr Mayor, or perhaps Mr Hendy could, with what action is being taken to address the high levels of accidents that have taken place involving tipper-trucks?

Thank you. That is some very useful information for us to use in our ongoing lobbying to stop the minority bringing London to a halt. The second thing, Mr Mayor, and it has already been touched on, is your aspiration to have more control over the London regional rail network. Given that we understand that there are people particularly in Kent who are worried about how their fast trains would be stopping at more stations, can I suggest that it would be useful if TfL were to put out a model timetable --

But you must find yourself frustrated when you look at what is possible for your counterpart in New York to achieve in stopping strikes and indeed in Paris, too.

Thank you, Chair. I want to return, if you do not mind, to the greater involvement with surface rail. I am going to focus particularly on my constituents and the rail routes that run through that, but I think these are probably applicable to others as well. One of the concerns that has been I know raised is the concern that politicians, MPs and councillors have in Kent and other Home Counties, not so much that their constituents will be disadvantaged under your tenure as Mayor, but that if there was a change of political leadership here at City Hall...
