Costs are higher in London and this is a challenge that Government itself faces in directly funding the capital. Be it capital city function funding for the police, the, in my view, vindictive cuts to TfL funding or the recent cuts to university funding, do you believe London is being targeted by the Government for cuts? Is this levelling down London, instead of levelling up the rest of the country, as they promised?

I was surprised to learn from the press that Mr Jack Stenner, the GLA’s director of political and public affairs, on a salary of £120,000 a year, has quit London for an apartment in San Francisco, some eight hours behind London, whilst retaining his post. I would be interested to learn if you believe someone residing in Northern California can do an effective job as member of your senior management team from 5,000 miles away 1 . 1 https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/13364319/sadiq-khan-aide-working-from-hom…

On 13 October 2020, you declared City Hall ‘a committedly anti-racist organisation’ 1 . Given the present uncertainty surrounding the future location of the Greater London Authority, I would be grateful if you could clarify for me if that designation also applies to the GLA offices at Union Street and the Crystal Building at Royal Victoria Dock, or will those buildings be the subject of future anti-racist mayoral pronouncements? 1 https://www.london.gov.uk/press-releases/mayoral/mayor-declares-city-ha…

Do you agree with me that with homeworking becoming a reality of modern working life, it is vital all Londoners have access to high-speed broadband? BT Openreach do not currently have plans to ensure rollout to all areas, such as Silverbell Court in N11. Will you ask them to do so?
