Caroline Pidgeon MBE AM: Mr Mayor, I welcome the further progress on step-free stations in London that you outlined. However, a recent question to the Department for Transport confirms that level boarding will not be available on Elizabeth Line services at the new Old Oak Common Station, meaning that not all Elizabeth Line stations will provide step-free access. Are you aware of this, Mr Mayor?

Caroline Pidgeon MBE AM: Thank you very much. Good morning, Mr Mayor and Commissioner. Congratulations on your appointment. I want to focus my questions today on Tube noise and the impact this is having on residents, day and night, in many parts of London, from south Wimbledon to Kennington to King’s Cross. Rail grinding is one of the very few tools that TfL is currently using to try to reduce noise, but internationally there are many innovations in this field. One metro in China has introduced special sleepers that have a wider base then the top, which is shown to...

Caroline Pidgeon MBE AM: My question is to the Mayor. I would like to ask about the recovery from the pandemic, which should include cycling. On 4 August [2021], Dr Marta Krawiec was killed cycling to work at Holborn Gyratory. There have been eight cyclists killed there since 2008; four at the junction of Southampton Row and Theobalds Road.

James Cleverly AM MP: Thank you, Madam Chair. Mr Mayor, do you share my incredulity that a whole load of issues like maternity pay, paid leave and that kind of thing, which are absolutely not under threat if we leave the EU, are being highlighted as examples of why we should stay, yet other more practical things like direct support for the British steel industry and zero-rating of tampons and other women’s sanitary products, which would be on the agenda if we left the EU, seem to be strangely missing from the list of things brought up by the opposition?
