What does the future hold for the Metropolitan Police Service?

• Question by: Keith Prince
• Meeting date: 06 July 2016

Keith Prince AM: Thank you, Madam Chairman. I want to talk about special constables, but can I just, first of all, Mr Mayor, welcome your comments on the Rape Crisis centre. As you know, Redbridge is one of the Rape Crisis centres - or is the Rape Crisis centre - for East London. Can I just ask you to clarify, did you say that you are giving a clear commitment to continue the funding of the Rape Crisis centres?

Shaun Bailey AM: Morning, Mayor, morning, Sir Bernard. I just wanted to quickly have a little talk about the night Tube. I, like most Londoners, am really looking to the notion of getting on the Tube at night; well done for that. A number of Londoners are slightly worried about the potential increase for anti-social behaviour and crime around particular stations. I know that 12 stations in particular have been highlighted by the British Transport Police (BTP). I just wonder - I address these comments to the Mayor - what can be done to track any change in behaviour around...

Gareth Bacon AM: Thank you, Madam Chairman. I have questions to the Commissioner initially. The subject of the water cannon has aroused huge amounts of excited comment in the last couple of years; I know you are very familiar with that. I do not have particular feelings one way or the other, but I am interested in how decisions are made. Is it true, Commissioner, that it was the MPS that made the case for a water cannon to be purchased for London and the previous Mayor acceded to that request?

Andrew Boff AM: Mr Mayor, will you read and respond to the GLA Conservatives’ report, #reporthate, published in June last year, which identified serious weaknesses in the police’s capacity to process reports of hate crime online?

Do you not find that they are absolutely grotesque to look at? I am a great one for doing what can be done but I also believe that the best way to encourage people to do the right thing is to make it possible for them to do the right thing. Is it not going to be absolutely vital that we get these light bulbs designed in a way that is acceptable to people because the light is appalling and they look absolutely grotesque?

Thank you very much. You have told us lots about your good intentions and your principles and so on - and indeed about 90% of what you have said was about your intentions - but not what you have actually achieved. That really is rather like the expenditure that there has been on these programmes. Is it good value for money that, of the £2.7 million that has been spent on the Green Homes programme, £2.2 million of that has been spent on publicity and only £300,000 on actual insulation grant? Would you not say that the whole thing is...

It is very important that people have a practical solution to these light bulbs. I am genuinely asking whether we are going to get some improvements in the light bulb that might persuade people that they are not such a disastrous thing to move over to. That is what I am trying to get at.

I was just wondering about these light bulbs. Nicky, have you completely gone over to these hideous new light bulbs? Has your house completely gone over to them now?
