Or workless. They are not workless, because they are not able to work. They are doing other things. Elizabeth Howlett AM: You have hit on a bête noire of mine, I must say, because I think we have marginalised and done very badly by a whole group of youngsters leaving schools who have manual skills and do not get training. There is nothing disrespectful about saying you are a manual worker. It is an essential element in our life and, in fact, Poles are keeping the construction industry going. You talked about people coming from the Asian continent with great...

: Indeed, but I think someone should ask well what would be the point in trying to get into work people who are long-term sick and disabled, who have obviously taken themselves out of work because they cannot work? What is the point of getting students into work when they are there to be studying and what is the point in spending a lot of resources on getting people to work who have chosen not to work because they are carers at home or indeed, as I have just said, there is a percentage of women who choose not to...

I am perhaps expressing myself badly. I think what I was told by one of my residents was that the reason for the excellent response time on 7 July was in part luck because we had fire officers returning from an earlier incident, which meant they were they returning and free to go straight out. I do not know the truth of that; I am just putting that point to you because it was put to me and I wonder whether that was part of it. My other question to Valerie (Shawcross) is that I hear what you say about...

I look forward to having those figures but if I could just ask one more time ' I am just wondering if that is as good as it always was or whether there has been any change at all. That is what I want to know.

Obviously as I represent some of the central parts of London, I hear what you say about the fact that there has been a benefit to outer boroughs in terms of getting there speedily, but obviously any loss of minutes for central London is something I would have to view with some concern. In my view, it is better that there should be no loss of minutes and just extra facilities for outer London than that anything should have to move out at all. In any part of London this seems to me a better way forward. However, can I...

I am staggered by the figure of 24, because I am aware that there are a hell of a lot more businesses than 24 in that area, so it sounds to me like you have an awful long way to go. The main point I want to say to you: I do not know whether you saw some of the local businessmen, who were congregated outside City Hall this morning in advance of this meeting. I think some of them are in the audience now. They are shaking their heads in disbelief at what they just heard from you. I...
