You are supporting the police's attempt to outsource this by saying that you will find the extra funding. What I am saying is, as Mayor ' and I as a member of the Metropolitan Police Authority ' should be putting pressure on them to make it integral to their operations.

What we need to recognise is, as Jenny [Jones] has reiterated today, the proceeds from wildlife crime are second only to the drugs trade in international crime. It funds terrorism, it funds organised crime, and it funds, I believe, the breakdown in society. For it to be relegated to not really important because it is only a furry thing, I do not find acceptable. I trust you agree?

However, timber procurement and water still fall short of your standards. Will you continue to put pressure on to make sure that the ODA come up to scratch on this?

I hope this gap is narrowing and you succeed in that. When you last appeared here at Mayor's Question Time you did tell us that the ODA would come back with an improve set of sustainability standards and you said, `If they do not, I will join you in making sure they do'. I obviously put this to David Higgins and he replied, `We do not want to go back and redo all our policies or strategies or redo targets'. In terms of pushing to close this gap, who is going to win, you or David Higgins?

But I would not really trust Al Gore particularly either, and that is the reason why there is a debate which surely, Mayor, as I have asked for, if you agree to a showing of one side, which a lot of people say is not factual, can we show the other side?

All the scientists on that programme were not barking mad.
