"London is the greatest city in the world, safer than major US cities, and we're delighted to welcome the record number of US citizens moving here."

"This is a mayor who marches with Pride, who stands up for difference of background and opinion, who's focused on improving our transport, our air, our streets, our safety, our choices and chances. Proud he's our mayor."
During his state visit to Britain last week, the US President said Sir Sadiq was "among the worst mayors in the world".
