When you got sponsorship for the cable car from Emirates, you praised them to the roof today, and a wide fare on the Tube to Virgin Media, why did you not insist on them paying the London Living Wage when you did so? Should we not rebrand the Emirates the poverty line rather than the skyline?

Andrew Dismore (AM): If you talk about the London Living Wage, you claim that 100 companies have signed up to London Living Wage. Boris Johnson (Mayor of London): Sorry, I cannot quite hear what you are saying. Andrew Dismore (AM): You claim 100 companies have signed up to London Living Wage but that represents fewer than 9,000 people in work and it is the case, is it not, that we have 680,000 Londoners who are in work but are in poverty struggling to make ends meet for themselves and their families. That is 1 million Londoners in working householders in...

Mr Mayor, have you undertaken any assessment of food poverty in London?

I am giving you a chance to answer those questions in relation to the issues around what you were briefed around News International in that period of time. Let us move on, so can you tell us what you discussed with Rebecca Brooks at your meeting on 14 January and were you accompanied by any GLA paid employee at that meeting?

Are you aware, Mr Mayor, that there will be many Londoners, and indeed many people here in this Assembly today, who think it is disgraceful of Len Duvall pretending to be Robert Jay, a poor man's Robert Jay, in continuously harassing you and not accepting your reply? There are many of us who think that the man who has twice successfully polled more than a million votes of Londoners to become Mayor of London is someone who should be trusted and indeed can be trusted. To be consistently called a liar is wholly unacceptable.

Mr Mayor, one last question, why did you not give evidence to the Leveson Inquiry, is it because you would have to give evidence under oath, is that why you chose not to give evidence?

• Question by: Lord Duvall of Woolwich in the Royal Borough of Greenwich OBE
• Meeting date: 04 July 2012

Do you think it was unwise to have those meetings at that time, no matter in terms of how good your intentions were, with representatives of an organisation under a very high profile criminal investigation into its criminal activities, allegedly, as well as individuals. Do you think it was wise that you had that meeting and do you not think that those that may look outside were looking knowing that the knowledge and leadership that you provide from this place in City Hall, as well as in the police, is that some would suspect that something else took place at...

• Question by: Lord Duvall of Woolwich in the Royal Borough of Greenwich OBE
• Meeting date: 04 July 2012

Just to remind you, Mr Mayor, why we are asking these questions. It is because these are two meetings that you said we knew all about these meetings that you had with News International, and these are ones that you kept secret. You chose to put those into a public domain, ten months after they actually appeared. Why did you try and conceal those meetings?

• Meeting date: 04 July 2012

Explain to me why then, on all those issues about the promotion of the work, why was Will Lewis, the senior non editorial executive, invited to your meeting, at that lunch with Rebecca Brooks. Why was he invited to that meeting? Now, Will Lewis was co ordinating the News International response to the Metropolitan Police Service, so why was he invited to that meeting on 14 January?

• Meeting date: 04 July 2012

Months later, after you told this Assembly that all the meetings with News International were out in the open and these two were particularly not there, and disclosed in a different way. Can you tell us what you discussed with Rupert Murdoch as you dropped into dinner with him on 24 January and were you accompanied by accompanied by any GLA paid employees?
