Why has the bold ambitions of the ULEZ been watered down from only permitting “zero or low emission” vehicles to enter to allowing polluting diesel vehicles, and petrol cars registered before 2006 into central London for a £10 fee?

One of the concerns I have - because it is vital to Enfield and Haringey with the development of Meridian Water and the Tottenham developments, some of the largest housing schemes for 20 years in London - is that Crossrail 2 will be vital to that. What case are you making both as Mayor and as Chair of TfL to make sure that the Government gives the green light and also that it puts money behind the scheme as well?

I want to turn now to sexual harassment on the transport network because, looking at TfL reports for the last quarter from 1 April to 30 June this year, there was a 30% increase from the same quarter last year.

Can you just tell us which elements of your failed policies you are going to be trumpeting as your legacy to Londoners on air pollution? Is it going to be your dust suppressants to cover up the problem in the first place, the weakening of the LEZ and the ULEZ or your misleading advice to Londoners during the smog incident at the beginning of the year?

Can I just move to one suggestion you have made recently in the public domain: the car scrappage scheme for diesel? Today, it is interesting, actually, we have cabbies out on a go-slow because they feel that your move to scrap older taxis has backfired.

Recently leaked plans say that you are planning to close most ticket offices. Is this not a cause for concern about the safety of stations, particularly for vulnerable groups to buy tickets and get information at tube stations?
