On 23 June 2020, you tweeted: ‘Four years ago, the UK voted to leave the EU. Four years on, we still have no sign of a deal. The PM needs to put politics aside and extend the Brexit transition period so that our businesses and public services aren’t forced to face yet another cliff edge.’ Why is it you still find yourself unable to accept the will of the British People, as expressed in the democratic outcome of the referendum vote in 2016?

As I stated at the last Mayor’s Question Time, I am perturbed by your decision to establish a Commission for Diversity in the Public Realm, thus making City Hall the arbiter of history in London. This should make us all deeply uncomfortable - no politician should take it upon themselves to become judge, jury, and executioner of a country’s history. In a liberal democracy, history should be debated and discussed, but never hidden or erased. Whether we like it or not, there are good, bad and ugly elements of Britain's past. London is the site of many national memorials and...

I note the report in the Daily Mail on 29 April 2020 which stated: ‘Chaos over coronavirus face mask plans as London mayor Sadiq Khan warns he may 'unilaterally' take action to tell people to wear them in the capital.’ ‘Mr Khan warned that he may pre-empt any change in the capital, telling ITV News: 'If it's the case that despite all our lobbying and the emerging scientific evidence the government doesn't change its guidance, I may well decide unilaterally to instruct Londoners to do that.' 1 On what basis have you decided that your will overrides the writ of...
