    Thank you, Mayor. Given the fact that the full IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) report was not made available at the time, and given the fact that many of the scientists who were quoted in it themselves had to take legal action to be disassociated from it because of the fact that the final draft of the communiqué avoided all of the doubts, all the question marks and all the qualifications, my only point really of this question is that you put something on with Al Gore -- let me just quote what he said himself about his own...

  • Olympics Precept (Supplementary) [10]

    • Question by: Damian Hockney
    • Meeting date: 21 March 2007

  • Olympics Precept (Supplementary) [14]

    • Question by: Damian Hockney
    • Meeting date: 21 March 2007
    This is down to government and incentives. At the moment you say about companies wanting to locate here but people like Kraft moved their European headquarters out of Britain to Switzerland, because of our developing problems over ever higher taxes.You say that in about 2009 your successor will make the case for monies on the £300 million, but that just cannot be guaranteed. The money has to come from somewhere.You must know what is going to happen.
