A question about tactics, Ken - a gentle question. [Laughter.] As is my wont. I think we can all feel comfortable with the position you expressed earlier - decentralisation cannot be realistic without true devolution of powers. That means that the interests of different regions might not be the same. The grand coalition that you were essentially talking about is fine in theory, but there are a couple of questions we have to get clear before we start. First of all, when we talk about the south-east - I do not disagree with you at all - what are the...

Can I follow up this question of the work of the GLA and the message that goes out? We can spend millions on leaflets, and it can all be destroyed by one ill-advised quote. If I might have a little latitude - The Chair: Well, not a lot. Trevor Phillips: - I would like to read from The Guardian this morning: "Lee Jasper, who works for Ken Livingstone, said, 'I am going to organise black children, black parents and black teachers to come together in a group to educate black people together in London. We need black schools where our...

Thank you, Ken. Just picking up on the point that Bob Neill made, we know that you have been terrifically busy, but I wanted to say on behalf of the Member for Harrow, and for the people of Harrow, East, of whom I am one, how grateful we were for your welcome support for Tony McNulty, our MP, last week. In between these extremely important and worthy activities, I wonder whether you have found time to read the 4,000 or so letters that you received from the consultation since we last spoke - when you said you would lock yourself...

This is really a question about when we can see the information, so that we can get in the loop and start preparing our responses. When do you think we might be able to see this information? It is somewhere in the building.

Mr Mayor, I can hardly speak, I am so shocked by your answer. [Laughter.] in my role as Deputy Chair, responsible for the pastoral care of some of our Assembly Members, I wonder whether you can help us. Given that the Conservative group on the Assembly fought very hard to avoid a rise in the council tax, and also spoke up bravely for an increase in police numbers, it seems to me that they face an unacceptable contradiction in the plans of their leaders, Mr Hague and Mr Portillo. How do you advise Mr Neill and his colleagues to deal...
