  • Sadiq Khan faces grilling at final Mayor's Question Time of 2024 - Mayor set to be grilled on affordable rents, the Met police and plans to improve TfL services

The article from MSN discusses the final Mayor's Question Time of 2024 in London, where Mayor Sadiq Khan faced scrutiny over the city's rising crime rates. During the session, Khan was challenged by members of the London Assembly on various issues, including the effectiveness of his policies in tackling crime, particularly knife crime and burglaries. Critics pointed out that despite Khan's initiatives, crime statistics showed an increase, with opposition members questioning the allocation of resources and the focus on certain types of crime over others. Khan defended his record by highlighting investments in youth services, community policing, and the Violence Reduction Unit, arguing that while crime rates have risen, his administration has made significant efforts to address underlying causes and improve safety measures. The session also touched on broader topics like transport, housing, and environmental policies, but crime remained a central theme.
