Is Rehman talking about the Islamic Community in Britain?

Richard K, Nottingham,

Rehman
You are living in the UK where we do not employ the punishments
and barbaric practices practiced in the Islamic states you so clearly admire.
Why not live in those societies if you feel so comfortable ?

jd, london,

The figures on crime when related to those who have no beliefs who commit 44% of crimes. After decades of failiure the multicultural secular argument is failed and threadbare. Children with no beliefs, boundaries & limitations have no reason to avoid crime. The 10, u shalt not steal or kill work

Jas, Alders, UK

the labour socialists and their welfare state and the embarrassingly lenient sentencing for crime is the root of most of the UK's problems. a group of youths rob someone at knifepoint. it should ten years minimum and they should lose their council housing privileges. one strike your out!

Alex, London, England

Rehman get real. If you want an 'islamic social system' then go and live in an Islamic state. It is ridiculous calls like these that are partly to blame for the resentment to multiculturism in this country.

Well done Boris.

To fight London's crime Boris needs to reverse the "multi-cultural" hogwash of the previous administration. Uncontrolled immigration and the attraction of London as a centre for all sorts of lunies and radicals who are given asylum, homes and social security ahead of true Londoners must stop.

Wonderful, great result.

Andrew Hodgson, London,

Just another 'liberal' dictator! Don't look to Boris the Buffoon to do anything for you. Just do it yourself! I do. It works. Think on...

Terry, London, UK

how many Boris Johnson's does it take to change a light bulb?
Boris? who's he? oh me! what's a light bulb?

Let's just look at what mayor Guiliani did and achieved in New York during his term of office, then the way forward becomes clear: ZERO TOLERANCE!!!

Henning, Shanghai, China

Islamic socail system and laws are only solution to the increasing crimes in UK. Incest,murdering ones own child,stabbing,gang terror and fights are just horible.Increasing the number of cctv would not help

rehman, ilford, uk

I'll settle for common sense. No weighing garbage, better collection services. No £2800 fines for 4" open garbage lid. No 'hawk'ish' parking attendants. A unified transportation system and realistic prices (Paris Metro 70p) per journey. No cooking smells overhanging town centres, clean streets.

Brian Filby, Fondettes, France

Maitreya says we have to understand the causes of crime. The domain of the problem, he says, cannot be limited to the crimes themselves, because the solutions then will be simply reactive, dealing only with effects.

Maitre, London, UK

Good on Boris, but whats Ken going to do now? Other than be a thorn in the side of Brown.

Colin, Nottingham,

Good on you Boris! I know that you will be a great Mayor....

Caroline, London,

Good luck to Londoners and I hope Mr. Johnson's plan to fight crime works. Rudy Giuliani's "broken window" policy helped bring crime down in NY immensely, and it sounds similar to what Mr. Johnson proposes.

Catherine, Seattle, USA

Cars cause crime. They make the streets into unpleasant places where only the poor, teenagers, and those up to no good linger. The adult middle classes insulate themselves from the violence by driving everywhere.

Malcolm McLean, Bradford, UK

Boris Johnson living proof that the people of London do have a sense of humour.

Dave, Lancashire, UK

The key note in his speech is the reconciliation of all parties and recognition of all community needs, not just those that he favours. Ken hated the car users and was very left wing. Some would have chosen Mickey Mouse over the self proclaimed biased " father of London".

Dan, London,

"Boris Johnson makes fighting crime top priority"

I didn't vote for Mr Boris but fighting crime would be a very good start. He'd get backing from every single Londoner for that... well everyone apart from the criminals of course.

jayil, london, uk

Fighting crime, same priority as our new Mayor in Rome. Good Luck to both of you !

Roberto Castellano, Salsomaggiore, Italy

Congratulations, Boris! Good to have a sensible, human mayor of London....Good Luck!

Harry Durnall, Aberystwyth, Ceredigion

Crime, particularly violent crime, has been on the rise throughout the developed world. The traditional approaches to this problem, such as more prisons and police and longer prison sentences, do not seem to be working. But certainly the eruption of crime has brought a lot of dirt up to the surface.

Jaap den Haan, Namen,

London under control of a Tory leader is a very important soundbed running up to an election. Policies Boris employs will be watched by the nation. David should give him as much aid as he needs as failure, from today, will come back to haunt them on the day. I wish him success and will be watching.
