With Brexit talks between the government and the EU appearing to stall, how is the Mayor preparing for any consequences of no deal being reached?
- Will Londoners really face shortages of food, medicines and other essentials?
- Will London’s status as a world financial centre be affected?
- Why does the Mayor support another referendum?
- What will he be discussing with EU’s Brexit chief negotiator Michel Barnier at his planned meeting on Friday?
Tomorrow, the London Assembly EU Exit Working Group will question the Mayor about his role in preparing London for a future outside the EU. The guests are:
At 11am - Sadiq Khan, Mayor of London
At 12pm - John Barradell, Deputy Chair of the London Resilience Forum
The meeting will take place on Thursday 25 October from 11:00am in Committee Room 5 (The Queen’s Walk, London SE1).
Media and members of the public are invited to attend
The meeting can also be viewed LIVE via webcast or YouTube
