Unsafest City in Europe?

The Evening Standard revealed that London is one of the worst places in Europe for crime. For the world’s leading business city this is completely unacceptable. How are we supposed to maintain a competitive environment when people are afraid to walk the streets at night? I want Londoners to feel safe, and I want visitors to London to be safe.

More importantly as a mother, I want live in a city where my children don’t need to be afraid of street crime. Whether on the daily commute, the school run , the Saturday night out or the weekly shop, I want to be safe.

As Mayor, I would take a tougher stance on crime. I believe London deserves better. Don’t you?
