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. I was pleased to see that the vast majority of those now will not be. Your Deputy Mayor for Policing and Crime [Stephen Greenhalgh], who I see has just joined us, having reversed his own decision to evict people. I raised this with you back in March, the whole issue of tenants being evicted from Raynesfield in Wimbledon. Why did you not step in then when you had the chance, rather than sitting back while...

A question for the Mayor, really. I want to pick up from where Sir Bernard left off on the issue of abstractions. Boris Johnson (Mayor of London): Yes. Andrew Dismore AM: In February 2013, Sir Bernard told the Police and Crime Committee that he had set a target of no more than 5% of officers’ working time on abstractions, but in July of this year, total abstractions across London in terms of total of hours worked was 17%, more than three times the target. What that translates to is quite serious. In Barnet, for example, in the six months to...

As a member of a private architecture practice with interests in London, you may have a conflict of interest in developing policies which could benefit your private business. Do you agree ? Do you understand why some of us might have a concern about this? .

Developers, such as major retailers, will not always share the aspirations set out in the London Plan - particularly when these conflict with their own interests. How will you seek to influence private developers into sharing your agenda? I was very pleased to go to one of your meetings with the Southern boroughs and there was a lot of enthusiasm. It is almost sad to the extent that boroughs are obviously keen for assistance and advice in getting their master plans of projects on but it seems to me that one of the key things that needs to be done...
