Richard Tracey (AM): Tony, in your report you do talk to quite a great extent about Crossrail and we will all remember very much the length of the process to get funding, to get the whole process through. Now we are beginning to talk about Crossrail 2, which is very important in my constituency and in southwest London.

Thank you. Perhaps I could just go through one or two of the policies and look at some of the specific policies that were in your manifesto. I guess the one that most Londoners would find most important is that to try to deal and indeed to cut down on the number of strikes that are happening. You and the Commissioner have already talked about the bus strike but, frankly, that is one that I understand was brought about by only a third of the members of the union voting for the strike and taking part in the ballot.
