    Appendix 1 Police and Crime Committee – 29 January 2014 Transcript of Item 3: Discussion with the Mayor on the Proposed Deployment of Water Cannon by the Metropolitan Police Service Joanne McCartney AM (Chair): Then we move to our main item, which is looking at proposals for the Metropolitan Police Service to purchase water cannon. Before I start, this is the first of a series of three meetings we have. We have this meeting today to question the Mayor. Tomorrow we are questioning the Deputy Mayor [for Policing and Crime, Stephen Greenhalgh] and the Deputy Commissioner [Craig Mackey]. Then next week we have Sir Hugh Orde [President, Association of Chief Police Officers (ACPO)] and a representative from Liberty and an academic as well who we are talking to, looking at some of the broader issues around this. Perhaps I could start the questioning today and my question is to the Mayor initially. In December 2010 you said you had no plans to bring in water cannon in London. You stated at that time that you did not want to see an arms race developing between the police and protesters. Can I ask what has changed your mind? Boris Johnson (Mayor of London): Very simply, I reiterate what I said. I do not want to see an arms race and I do not think that necessarily would be caused by having water cannon at the disposal of the Metropolitan Police Service. What has changed, really, is that ACPO has done a study about some of the situations in which water cannon might be used and it has concluded that there could be circumstances in which life could be saved and serious injury could be prevented.

  • Strong Mayors' Leadership Capital: New York, London & Amsterdam
    STRONG MAYORS’ LEADERSHIP CAPITAL: NEW YORK, LONDON & AMSTERDAM (2000-2016) by Max William Stafford Canterbury Christ Church University Thesis submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2019 1 Abstract This thesis examines mayors and their interaction with their institutional limits. In particular, it considers, from the perspective of political leadership studies, how far mayors fitting the strong-mayor typology are able to assert their will in the face of these institutional limits. David Sweeting’s expositions on the strong-mayor model, supplemented by those of other theorists, form the thesis’ theoretical framework. This framework is applied to three original case studies (Michael Bloomberg in New York and Ken Livingstone & Boris Johnson in London). A fourth case study, of Job Cohen in Amsterdam, follows these and offers alternative perspectives (based upon the application a model of an appointed mayoralty). The analytical tool chosen – the Leadership Capital Index (LCI) – is a recent innovation in political leadership studies. The thesis’ findings demonstrate that there was clear potential for all of the mayors within the systems examined to assert their political will. What varies is how far mayors in different forms of strong-mayor systems can do this and how they achieve it. With regard to the LCI, the study concludes that it needs further development if it is to achieve longevity in terms of its place in the field. The thesis ends by outlining the future research agenda emerging as a result of this study. 2 Table of Contents Abstract ................................................................................................................................ 2 Acknowledgements .............................................................................................................. 7 List of Tables and Figures ..................................................................................................... 8 List of Interviewees* ..........................................................................................................

The text in Part A does not form part of the formal budget amendments, which are set out in Part B. 1 Conservative Group Amendment Blue paper (This page has been deliberately left blank) 2 Conservative Group Amendment Blue paper Conservative Alternative Greater London Authority Budget 2012 – 2013 By the London Assembly Conservative Group: James Cleverly Richard Tracey Tony Arbour Gareth Bacon Richard Barnes Andrew Boff Victoria Borwick Brian Coleman Roger Evans Kit Malthouse Steve O’Connell January 2012 3 Conservative Group Amendment Blue paper Introduction The Conservative Assembly Group is producing its third alternative budget under a Conservative Mayor and administration in City Hall. Whereas under the previous administration we proposed wide-ranging alterations across all of the GLA Group to hold the Council Tax precept down to a more reasonable and realistic level in the face of a belligerent Mayor keen to squeeze every penny out of Londoners, we now have in Boris Johnson a far more responsible Mayor who is pressing down on costs across all the functional bodies and favouring a more realistic budget than his predecessor. We welcome the freeze in the precept for an unprecedented fourth year running. Ken Livingstone never got close to achieving a precept freeze or of even trying to do so even despite his Mayoralty coinciding with a time of financial prosperity.

  • A-Federal-Uk-Council-2
    3 November 2016 1 It is both logical and appropriate for all the political parties to seek to unite the UK after the nationwide referendum vote to leave the EU in June 2016. If the new Conservative Prime Minister, Theresa May, sees merit in the constitutional development of a Federal UK Council, and she combines it with her interest in Joseph Chamberlain’s city government model she can find the methodology for reaching a consensus on a cross party basis. Theresa May started well by making her first visit as Prime Minister to Scotland to meet with its First Minister, Nicola Sturgeon. She may well move on limited but useful devolved measures; like a better needs based assessment to replace the Barnett formula, on how Scotland will have more control under Article 50 negotiations and have substantial additional policy control over fishing and agriculture; mechanisms surrounding Income Tax being assigned in Scotland and Wales, the Silk Report which has dealt with devolving Corporation Tax to Wales and also discussions of how central and reserved powers will be further exercised by new devolved authorities in England. But all this will not provide an intellectual challenge to separatist thinkers. They need to be offered a federal future in the UK. The big political question is how to establish a federal structure for the UK and what is the best approach. A Constitutional Convention in all its different forms or even a Royal Commission are suggested. Whatever the forum, I am convinced it needs a specific, not a general mandate if it is to be capable of attracting full SNP participation.
