Many areas in Croydon and Sutton are cursed with the riding of small mini-mopeds and motorcycles on pathways, parks, open spaces and roads by riders often unhelmeted. Frequently it seems that individual community ward officers do their very best to tackle the problems arising from this behaviour. What though is best practice across the Metropolitan Police Service on dealing with this problem ? What powers are employed to tackle such behaviour and what additional powers could the police service seek to tackle this issue?

I am always very pleased to hear positive comments about Croydon. I met with the wardens myself when I was out engaging with the good people of New Addington on Saturday afternoon. There was always a danger with mayoral candidates who inevitably have to pay brief visits to areas as to whether or not they get fully briefed.

The Mayor's London Plan continues to predict that a growing number of commuters will be travelling from outer London into central London. Do you feel that this is a sustainable approach to take? Would, for instance, more support of major District centres such as Sutton and Croydon perhaps encourage a more sustainable growth for London, with two-way commuting taking place? .
