Thank you. My question now then is to the Mayor, if I may. When the cuts to policing were first announced three-odd years ago, there were reports and in this Chamber many people warned that anything above a 12% cut to policing would affect the frontline. You said then that the MPS could make 20% at that point without affecting the frontline. I think we have seen the frontline being affected by those 20% cuts. Mr Mayor, can I just put it to you that we have heard about the risks to the future. Is it fair to say, do...

I want to raise with you the issue of tenants who were threatened with eviction from MOPAC-owned homes, some of whom were in fact evicted.

What that translates to is quite serious. In Barnet, for example, in the six months to...

Mr Mayor, can I raise the issue of sectarian tensions in London from the Middle East conflicts between Sunni and Shia? I welcome the comments you made to Andrew Boff AM that you do not want to see international disputes come to the streets of London. In the past 15 months I have seen a number of incidents which concern me. The first was raised by Lebanese businesses on the Edgware Road about Anjem Choudary’s [cleric] mob inciting clearly religious hatred aimed at Shias. It was dealt with as a public order offence but an opportunity was missed to deal...
