Proceeding contribution from Clive Efford (Labour) in the House of Commons on Wednesday, 23 April 2008. It occurred during Opposition day on Crime (London).


Crime (London)

Absolutely. The Mayor has to be commended for the resolute approach he has taken to delivering what people in London have told all of us, of whatever political persuasion, is their priority: community safety and more police on the streets. The Mayor has delivered that and had the political guts to stand up and say that if we are to have it, we must pay for it. He has put it in the precept, and people can see where the money has gone.
