Will the Mayor support the Elephant & Castle Relocation Proposal, commissioned by local charity Latin Elephant, in collaboration with Southwark Law Centre and the wider Up the Elephant Campaign? The proposal details how enough stalls could be provided at 3 sites around the Elephant, to accommodate all the stall holders still without alternative premises.

Unmesh Desai AM: Good afternoon, panel. My question is to John Dickie and it is about the future of our high streets. We have already had some references in the earlier discussion to small businesses and to high streets. Jordan Cummins talked about small businesses gasping for breath. Georgia Gould talked about high streets being at the heart of recovery plans. I could not agree more. Mr Dickie, with London boroughs focused on helping localised shopping areas, what is the future for our local high streets? How can they be put at the heart of our recovery plans?
