Andrew Dismore AM: What do you consider the priorities for Brexit now to be, after the extension, for Londoners of EU origin during this longer period of uncertainty?

• Question by: Joanne McCartney
• Meeting date: 16 May 2019

Joanne McCartney AM: Mr Mayor, I want to ask you about EU students following Brexit. If they are treated as international students they will be only entitled to stay and work for four months. Do you agree that they should be able to stay for at least two years, preferably longer?

Len Duvall AM: One of the important things in the devolution asks surely over the coming years ‑ it will not happen overnight ‑ is that we in London take more control working within the national setting around Ofsted and planning for school provisions. I do not think there is one London borough that is happy with the present relationships with the different czars and the competing and sometimes incoherent approaches that they take. Would it be better to bring it back to strategic London as well as working more collaboratively with the boroughs?

Tony Arbour AM (Deputy Chairman): I wonder, Mr Mayor, if you can tell us how much TfL has in its reserves.

• Question by: Susan Hall
• Meeting date: 16 May 2019

Susan Hall AM: Mr Mayor, the protestors were breaking the law. It is against the law to park a boat in the middle of Oxford Circus. It is against the law to block off bridges. You have just given the real reasons why it is so bad. Blue‑light services cannot get used, etc. If they could remove those vehicles at the end of this very long period, they could have removed them at the beginning. That would have saved millions of pounds of taxpayers’ money, all of which should be spent, with respect, looking after knife crime, not looking after...

• Meeting date: 16 May 2019

Susan Hall AM: Just to add, you have mentioned a couple of times, “We must get more police officers”, etc. I 100% agree, which is why we put in the amendment for the budget. Also, you must bear in mind, Mr Mayor, that we are 1,000 officers short of what is in the budget for those officers. If you were up to speed with the number of officers that you have paid for, then perhaps we would not be in this dreadful state we are in now. Stop asking for more officers when you have the money for them.

• Question by: Len Duvall OBE
• Meeting date: 16 May 2019

Len Duvall AM: A very interesting set of questions from Assembly Member Bailey. Mr Mayor, do you agree that politicians have a special responsibility in setting the right tone for a public debate in the country to make it easier for the police to tackle the scourge of hate crime, and that comments ‑ some from across the way there that said that multiculturalism risked turning into a “crime‑ridden cesspool” ‑ contribute to the climate in which hate crime takes place?

• Question by: Unmesh Desai
• Meeting date: 16 May 2019

Unmesh Desai AM: Mr Mayor, the hostile environment has to be challenged at all levels. What can our sporting institutions, particularly our football clubs, be doing in this respect?

• Meeting date: 21 March 2019

Mr Mayor, with regard to the Michael Jackson adverts that appeared on buses, did you approve the action prior to the advertisements being withdrawn?

• Question by: Caroline Pidgeon
• Meeting date: 21 March 2019

Mr Mayor, given your promise to be the most transparent and open Mayor, will you agree to publish the agendas, minutes and papers for the GLA Interest Rate Setting Board, the Land Fund Investment Committee and GLA Land and Property Board?
