I have not got time to get into an argument with you so I would just like to ask you a question if that is all right. I know that sales of social housing have fallen this year and there was actually an increase in the number of social housing, but it is always like a leaky pot, isn't it: as fast as you build the social housing there is the right to buy process, and so you are losing those houses? Doesn't the Mayor have any powers to remove the right to buy on new social building?

One of the methods that you could accommodate this flood risk is through the Green Grid. Now, I am not seeing any movement on this. I am not seeing the finance in place. I am not seeing, in any serious way, that you are actually going to put that in place.

I will come back to walking and cycling. We all know we had the 50th anniversary of the London smog last week. The fact is that although we don't have smog anymore, we certainly do have a fairly lethal mix of toxins in the air of London, which not only triggers breathing disorders, asthma in children and so on, but also shortens our lives. What do you think in the Transport Strategy is actually going to help the quality of air in London?

You mentioned earlier the low emission zone. Research suggests that that would have quite an impact on air quality in London. Do you have any further information on that?

I wondered if you thought it good for the health of London that the National Health Service in London in a letter to us reckons the cost of the congestion charge to them is going to be somewhere near £20 million. Is that good for the health of London?

I think that actually Londoners will be interested to hear that £20 million of this so-called money that is coming towards the health of London is going straight into the Mayor's pocket.
