    • Question by: David Kurten
    • Meeting date: 17 December 2020
    I was surprised to learn from the press that Mr Jack Stenner, the GLA’s director of political and public affairs, on a salary of £120,000 a year, has quit London for an apartment in San Francisco, some eight hours behind London, whilst retaining his post. I would be interested to learn if you believe someone residing in Northern California can do an effective job as member of your senior management team from 5,000 miles away 1 . 1 https://www.thesun.co.uk/news/13364319/sadiq-khan-aide-working-from-hom…

  • No-Deal Brexit

    • Question by: Peter Whittle
    • Meeting date: 19 November 2020
    I note your tweet of 13 October 2020 which was headed: ‘This is my final warning to the Government on Brexit.’ In it, you advised the Government to seek an extension to the EU trade negotiations, to avoid the ‘chaos and uncertainty from an impending no-deal Brexit.’ Has Her Majesty’s Government taken heed of your final warning?

    • Question by: Peter Whittle
    • Meeting date: 19 November 2020
    On 20 September, LBC reported: ‘London mayor Sadiq Khan is said to be pressing for a 10pm curfew for pubs and work-from-home orders in the capital amid rising coronavirus cases.’ ‘The mayor is now urging ministers to extend the latest regional curbs – including ordering bars and restaurants to close at 10pm – to cover the capital as well, despite pleas from business leaders that such a move would be “devastating”.’ 1 However, on 7 October you tweeted: ‘We need a rapid review of the 10pm curfew. It is clearly hitting hospitality businesses hard, and it’s contributing to dangerous overcrowding...

  • Anti-Racism

    • Reference: 2020/4072
    • Question by: David Kurten
    • Meeting date: 19 November 2020
    On 13 October 2020, you declared City Hall ‘a committedly anti-racist organisation’ 1 . Given the present uncertainty surrounding the future location of the Greater London Authority, I would be grateful if you could clarify for me if that designation also applies to the GLA offices at Union Street and the Crystal Building at Royal Victoria Dock, or will those buildings be the subject of future anti-racist mayoral pronouncements? 1 https://www.london.gov.uk/press-releases/mayoral/mayor-declares-city-ha…

  • TfL High Earners

    • Reference: 2020/2921
    • Question by: David Kurten
    • Meeting date: 17 September 2020
    On 22 July 2020, you appeared before Parliament’s Transport Select Committee and told them: ‘Unlike du ring the previous administration where the number of people earning over £100,000 was going up and bonuses were going up, in the last four years they have been going down.’ However, for the end of the financial year 2015/16, when you took over as London’s Mayor, the total number of TfL employees earning more than £100,000 was 458 - including Crossrail staff. That went up for the next two years - to a high of 617. It then dropped to 515, before rising again...

  • Deal or No Deal

    • Reference: 2019/14239
    • Question by: Peter Whittle
    • Meeting date: 18 July 2019
    I note that on 4 July 2019 you Tweeted to your followers: ‘The damage that Boris Johnson and Jeremy Hunt seem willing to do to our economy, in pursuit of power, looks limitless. The refusal to take no-deal off the table is already creating uncertainty, denting business confidence and damaging our economy.’ 1 What empirical evidence (apart from what I believe to be scare mongering from HM Treasury, Remainer cheerleaders or former Goldman Sachs banker Mark Carney) do you have that the UK leaving the European Union without a deal will damage our economy? 1 https://twitter.com/SadiqKhan/status/1146853219466907650
