In response to the news that the Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, has become a Knight of the Order of the British Empire in His Majesty the King’s New Year Honours List, Chair of the London Assembly, Andrew Boff AM, said:
“The London Assembly congratulates the Mayor on his becoming a Knight of the Order of the British Empire, which recognises his service as a Councillor, an MP, and as Mayor of our great city since 2016.
“The Assembly welcomes this honour as a broader recognition of the importance and value of our regional democratic structures and hopes the Mayor uses the status granted by this Honour to further advocate for Londoners with partners in the UK and overseas.”
