Proceeding contribution from Andy Slaughter (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 27 March 2008. It occurred during Topical debate on Policing in London.

Policing in London

I agree. Racist crime in London has fallen by 55 per cent. since 2000. I do not need to say much about that because, as Doreen Lawrence and others have said, the record of Ken Livingstone as Mayor of London in tackling racist and other hate crimes in London is exemplary. There could not be a starker comparison with the record of the hon. Member for Henley, who made offensive and racist comments of a kind that he now tries to pass off as a joke. [Interruption.] Well, he did.
