Will you accept that you played your role in misleading the public in terms of what you had to say before you were elected? In fact it seems to me, on reading Sir Ian's [Blair] [former Commissioner, Metropolitan Police Service] book, that you were willing to say absolutely anything to get yourself elected. I quote him when he said, 'You cannot go on talking down the fall in crime in London which they have achieved, they need to know you care about them and the way that we can work together.' You looked him straight in the face and replied...

I think Londoners will welcome your condemning Christopher Grayling, Boris, as Chair, because --

Another risk to policing in London which appears to be growing is that of dangerous dogs and weapon dogs. Can you just take the opportunity to clarify the Metropolitan Police Service's policy and what is being done about this?

Moving on, can I add to Tony Arbour's point. Of course, your intervention in my constituency in South Camden was most welcome and has been a real fillip to the community down there in South Camden who realised that, with you as Mayor, their issues on street crime will be taken seriously. Can I ask Sir Paul on the question of burglary, in many of our suburban boroughs and particularly in Barnet, we have a huge rise in burglary and I wonder, Sir Paul, what would you say to the resident that I visited over the weekend in Woodside Park...

I was reading in the press yesterday the story that more than 100 rapists have been let off with a police caution and that 66 of these cases that were highlighted involved child rape. One of the examples that was given in this article was a woman who had been sexually abused by a 34 year old man between the ages of 13 and 15 years of age and yet he only got a caution. I understand that a caution could mean nothing more than two years on the sex offenders register. So I was wondering, do you know how...

Paul, you mentioned the Food Strategy. I would quite like to know when that is coming out?

In retrospect, do you regret perhaps not negotiating more robustly - I am choosing my words with care - with the IOC over some of its more elitist demands? For example, we spent vast amounts of money upgrading the transport system but it is insisting that nearly half the people have got the right to use the roads.

I am going to focus in on Greenwich, which, I am sure you are both aware, is becoming a slightly controversial area. A quick opening question: in the bid book the estimated cost for the temporary venues in Greenwich Park was £8.8 million. What is the current estimated cost?

Following on from the Cultural Olympiad, I feel that one of the most important principles that we can get across from the Olympic brand and Olympic spirit is that the pursuit of excellence need not necessarily be at the exclusion of mass participation. I think that is a very strong point to put across. I think if there is a way of tying in the Cultural Olympiad and the Sporting Olympiad so there is no gap. I am slightly worried, looking at some of the things we see with regards to the Cultural Olympiad that they are very cultural but...

Thank you. One of your reputational risks hangs on the slogan that was used throughout the bidding process, after we got it and until today, which is 'The most accessible Games ever'. It is delivering the most accessible Games ever which you will be judged by, in many ways. Now it is relatively easy to deliver accessible Games within six stadia, however there are a number of - what I believe is called - free to view events; pentathlons, long distance walking, marathons, for those who are not aware. How are you going to ensure that the mobility impaired and...
