Brexit Anxiety

  • Reference: 2016/2919
  • Question by: Peter Whittle
  • Meeting date: 14 September 2016
Are you aware that London's psychiatrists and counsellors have recently been overwhelmed by numbers of alarmed patients seeking help for a condition which has been labelled "Brexit anxiety"? What impact do you believe the Brexit grieving process is having on the mental health of Londoners?

Election Review

  • Reference: 2016/2918
  • Question by: Peter Whittle
  • Meeting date: 14 September 2016
What representations (if any) have you made to the government on the subject of constitutional reform - given the UK's increasingly fractured political landscape and the increasing unsuitability of first-past-the-post as an electoral model?

T charge

  • Reference: 2016/2917
  • Question by: David Kurten
  • Meeting date: 14 September 2016
It was stated by a member of staff of TfL that the T charge will have little to no effect in reducing air pollution. Why are you implementing a scheme which will cost millions of pounds, hurt the poorest car drivers while doing nothing to reduce pollution from buses or lorries, and have little to no effect in achieving your aim of reducing NOx and PM2.5 levels?

Air Pollution

  • Reference: 2016/2916
  • Question by: David Kurten
  • Meeting date: 14 September 2016
The recent report from King's College, commissioned by the GLA and TfL, estimates that between 3,537 and 9,416 people may by dying prematurely as a result of PM2.5 and nitrogen dioxide air pollution. Will the Mayor undertake in future not to say that '9,500 people are dying every year' as this is inaccurate and above the upper limit stated in the King's College report, but rather to state the number more accurately as 'between 3,500 and 9,400'?

Thamesmead Broadband

  • Reference: 2016/2915
  • Question by: David Kurten
  • Meeting date: 14 September 2016
Thamesmead is an area of London which is lacking in superfast broadband access. It has apparently been stuck at the "Field Survey" stage with no hope of progress for almost 2 years, despite reassurance that this survey takes on average 9 months to complete. Will the Mayor write to the DCMS and BT to ask them to speed up the process so that the people of Thamesmead have access to superfast broadband as soon as possible?

Ecuadorian Embassy Intruder

  • Reference: 2016/2914
  • Question by: David Kurten
  • Meeting date: 14 September 2016
How was it possible for a potential intruder to scale the walls of the Ecuadorian Embassy when there is a permanent police guard stationed outside?

Julian Assange (2)

  • Reference: 2016/2913
  • Question by: David Kurten
  • Meeting date: 14 September 2016
What will be the ongoing costs of monitoring Julian Assange in the Ecuadorian Embassy this year? Do you think this is a good and acceptable use of public money?

Julian Assange (1)

  • Reference: 2016/2912
  • Question by: David Kurten
  • Meeting date: 14 September 2016
How much has it cost the Metropolitan Police to monitor Julian Assange in the Ecuadorian Embassy since 2012?

Parking Charge Notices

  • Reference: 2016/2911
  • Question by: David Kurten
  • Meeting date: 14 September 2016
There have been reports of many motorists being charged PCNs in Station Approach at Hayes and Harlington station for simply dropping people off or picking people up outside the station. Apparently the road is private, but motorists have no reason to believe this or consider this as it looks like a normal road, but are told after they receive a PCN that they should know as there is a sign by the station stating as such. What will the Mayor do to ensure that motorists do not continue to be stung by what they may justifiably consider to be a...

Mohamed Dura-Rey

  • Reference: 2016/2910
  • Question by: David Kurten
  • Meeting date: 14 September 2016
What are the Metropolitan Police doing to bring the killers of Mohammed Dura-Rey, who was murdered on 18th September 2015 in the Newington Estate, to justice?
