Mr Mayor, you may recall that in June I asked you about the rise in violent crime in particular outer London boroughs. You said that you had noticed an increase and that you had asked questions and the MPS had told you it was about domestic violence and an increase in reporting. Actually, we have done some further work on this. If you look at the five highest boroughs, for example, Bexley, Bromley, Greenwich, Enfield, Haringey and Hillingdon ‑‑ Boris Johnson (Mayor of London): This is violence with injury, yes? Joanne McCartney AM: Yes, there have been significant rises in...

Seeing your cycle helmet there, Boris, it reminds me that you have still not honoured your promise from two years ago to cycle around Stirling Corner. Perhaps you will let us know when you are going to do that. Perhaps you can also let us know when we are finally going to get a decision on the 24-hour signal experiment, which has been delayed and delayed and delayed in terms of actually getting an outcome. The latest I heard it was going to be October, but that is about a year after we were originally promised the outcome.

Can I just move to one suggestion you have made recently in the public domain: the car scrappage scheme for diesel? Today, it is interesting, actually, we have cabbies out on a go-slow because they feel that your move to scrap older taxis has backfired.

Mr Mayor, it has been mentioned a few times already that you are going to the Commons this afternoon. Can you just tell us which elements of your failed policies you are going to be trumpeting as your legacy to Londoners on air pollution? Is it going to be your dust suppressants to cover up the problem in the first place, the weakening of the LEZ and the ULEZ or your misleading advice to Londoners during the smog incident at the beginning of the year?

Mr Mayor, I wanted to ask you some more questions about Crossrail 2, specifically about Battersea Power Station. Do you support the proposal for a Crossrail 2 station at Battersea Power Station?

Mr Mayor, do you think it is actually important in your pursuit of the Estuary Airport that everybody should be reminded it is not your scheme but is actually Foster’s scheme? I am afraid your scheme we are not talking about much anymore, but it is the Foster’s scheme ‑‑

• Question by: Joanne McCartney
• Meeting date: 10 September 2014

On the issue of accessibility, many of my constituents rely on the rail services rather than the Tube. If I look at, for example, the Great Northern line and the Hertford Loop and every station in my constituency from Haringey, Hornsey, Bowes Park and right up into Enfield, none of them has step-free access. Previously TfL had drawn up a priority list for bidding for access for all the funding and trying to support that. It had previously identified stations such as Alexandra Palace, Enfield Chase and Palmers Green as being priorities. The Government has announced that it is going...

I want to just go on to ask a question about TfL’s equalities impact assessment to the Commissioner. If he is not able to give me the answer today, then I would welcome it in writing. When I was looking through the programme to reduce London Underground’s running costs by some £50 million per annum, and when I looked at the equalities impact assessment, it said that there would be no negative equality impact on the following key target groups: women; black and ethnic minorities; lesbian, gay men, bisexual and transgender people; young people; children; and faith group members. However...

Mr Mayor, in your written submission to the House of Commons Environmental Audit Committee, in front of which you are appearing this afternoon, you give a figure of a 20% reduction of oxides since 2008. I have all of your roadside figures here and I cannot find that figure of 20% and in fact it is much lower. I am wondering. When you talk about a reduction, are you using your modelling? Are you using your predictions rather than the real figures, which I have here and which do not add up to 20%?

I would like to get some idea. Seeing as the headline of the question was “2016 achievements”, I would like to explore some of the things that you feel you are still looking to achieve by 2016, particularly in southeast London, which is the area that I represent. Obviously one of your very high profile transport achievements is the timely introduction of a New Bus for London. I would like to know when we will see more of the elegant and benign transport mode south of the river, particularly southeast London.
