  • Black Cabs (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Keith Prince
    • Meeting date: 05 March 2020
    Keith Prince AM: First of all, Mr Mayor, thank you for attending the Haven House event last week. It was very gracious of you to come along to that. Continuing on black cabs, one of the big issues of course is around The Knowledge and the massive drops we have seen in the number of black cab drivers doing The Knowledge. I have actually seen advertising for people to do The Knowledge, which is something I have never seen before. What can we do about that, Mr Mayor? What plan do you have to do about it?

  • TfL Inefficiency (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Susan Hall
    • Meeting date: 05 March 2020
    Susan Hall AM: Mr Mayor, there is real growing local support and a very positive campaign from the splendid Elliot Colburn MP [for Carshalton and Wallington]. Will you start to seriously consider the extension of the Overground from West Croydon to Sutton?

  • London's transport policies (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Lord Bailey of Paddington
    • Meeting date: 05 March 2020
    Shaun Bailey AM: Mr Mayor, on 7 February [2020] 97% of Unite bus drivers voted to strike over fatigue and safety. A week later, you announced that bus drivers would receive an extra £34 million in bonuses. How many more trade unions can expect this kind of hush money?

  • London's transport policies (Supplementary) [5]

    • Question by: Susan Hall
    • Meeting date: 05 March 2020
    Susan Hall AM: First of all, bravo for those questions. Thank you very much, Assembly Member Arnold, for that. I am sure the Mayor is as surprised as I am - for once we will share an emotion - that the Assembly Member for Harrow and Brent did not even mention the wretched Metropolitan line, which has been a complete disaster for the last year. We have had nothing but trouble being turfed off trains and so on. Mr Mayor, I will ask you: are you happy with the service that -- Tony Arbour AM (Deputy Chairman): Hang on, Assembly...

  • London's transport policies (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Tony Devenish
    • Meeting date: 05 March 2020
    Tony Devenish AM: Mr Mayor, going back to Assembly Member Arnold’s question about tin-eared anti-customer service culture, in many ways the best question I have heard in the entire four years from this Assembly, I have a suggestion for you. Will you consider involving the retiring Deputy Chair and Chair of the Assembly in the recruitment of Mr Brown’s successor? We have to sort out customer services. It is a shocking set of customer services. TfL does many things well, but customer service is not one of them.

  • Mayor's Opening Statement (Supplementary) [1]

    • Question by: Tony Devenish
    • Meeting date: 05 March 2020
    Jennette Arnold OBE AM (Chair): I would not normally take a follow‑up question from the Member who has put that question because this is not Mayor’s update but because of the publicity and the concerns that I know of and a number of Members have raised about Hammersmith Bridge, can I ask Assembly Member Devenish if he has anything briefly to say in response to the Mayor? Tony Devenish AM: Good morning, Mr Mayor. As you know, it has been shut for 11 months, Hammersmith Bridge. We still do not have a direct plan of when we are going to...

  • TfL Inefficiency

    • Reference: 2020/0930
    • Question by: Keith Prince
    • Meeting date: 05 March 2020
    4 years ago, in your manifesto, you claimed that TfL was “inefficient and flabby”. Can you name one piece of flab that you have cut?

  • Meeting London’s Current and Future Policing Needs (Supplementary) [11]

    • Question by: Kit Malthouse
    • Meeting date: 09 December 2014
    Commissioner, Mr Mayor, a variety of questions from me. First of all, just on the FGM one, do you have any sense of the level of resources that are currently applied to this particular issue, how many officers, is there a team of 20 or 200?

  • Meeting London’s Current and Future Policing Needs (Supplementary) [13]

    • Question by: Kit Malthouse
    • Meeting date: 09 December 2014
    OK, the other area I wanted to ask you about was the horse, the mounted units, an area I know that is close to your heart. There has been some research recently about the effectiveness of mounted police officers, both in visibility and in terms of enforcement. In effectiveness, I do not know if you have seen the hilarious video of a motorcyclist just on London Wall, I think doing a wheelie, being stopped by a mounted police officer very effectively and dealt with. What are the plans for the mounted units going forward?

  • Meeting London’s Current and Future Policing Needs (Supplementary) [14]

    • Question by: Kit Malthouse
    • Meeting date: 09 December 2014
    Then I just wanted to clarify the situation on Westminster and police stations, since Murad [Qureshi] raised it. My understanding is that Westminster will be like a Belgravia, West End Central and Paddington Green, is that right? Sir Bernard Hogan-Howe QPM (Commissioner of Police of the Metropolis): Sorry? Kit Malthouse AM: The City of Westminster will have three stations in the plan, which is Belgravia, West End Central and Paddington Green, will remain.
