Three minutes after 10 is the time and you are listening to speak to Sadiq on LBC with me in the

role of Robin to the mayor of London's Batman and you are in the position of asking all the

questions which you can do by dialing 034-6060 973 right now and putting your question to the

mayor. I'll begin with a text. This is from Mark.

No, he writes with six o's, not Mayor Kahn again.

Come on, James. Instead of handing him the hankies to wipe away his crocodile tears,

put your considerable metaphoric political foot on his throat and get him to splutter and squirm in his seat.

I won't insult you with a list of questions,

but this buffoon has to be accountable for the mess that London is in at the moment.

Please don't let him spout self-propaganda codswallop.

And another one, just to kick things off.

James, tell him to stop squashing cab drivers.

If he wants to reduce emissions, there is a magic word for, and if he wants to learn what it is, tell him to contact me. Unfortunately, that's unsigned. Nice to see you, Mr. Mayor. How are you? Not bad. It's Boris from Whiteswell, I think. It's actually good to be back in the studio. I mean, obviously I speak on a regular basis to your hardworking journalists, but it's lovely to be back here and also to hopefully take calls from your listeners as well.

We will crack on with that imminently, but obviously as ever,

I like to get in a couple of questions of my own. Are the Insulate Britain protest here to stay?

I hope they will raise the really important issues they're raising in a different way. I don't support the way they've been protesting. I think protest has a really important role to play now.

Did you support them at the start? Did you think if maybe once or twice makes the point and then fade away?

The issue I definitely support. We have to do a better job in insulating their homes because it helps with not just reducing carbon emissions.

It reduces people's bills and it helps create jobs.

That's why in London we have a retrofitting revolution to address this.

I support the right to protest.

I think though it should be lawful, peaceful and safe.
