Boris Johnson's Key Policies

As the popping of champagne corks, the slurping of Oysters and the revving of Chelsea tractors dies down, its worth reminding ourselves of Boris Johnson's key policies as he prepares to take over the helm as Mayor Of London this week.

Transport

• Scrap "bendy buses". Restore old Routemaster-style vehicles.

• Put plans for a westward extension of congestion charging zone up for public consultation, and scrap it if residents are opposed.

• Abandon Ken Livingstone's plans for a £25 charge on "gas guzzling" 4x4s.

Crime

• Cut violent crime, especially on public transport by banning alcohol from the Tube and removing the right of disruptive youths to free travel passes.

• Personally chair the Metropolitan Police Authority, which scrutinises the detail of Met operations.

Spending

• Sharp cuts in spending at City Hall, using savings to fund more than 400 new police community support officers.

• Biannual summits with business representatives

Environment

• Plant 10,000 street trees and pay for it by scrapping Mr Livingstone's free newspaper, The Londoner , which costs taxpayers £1 million a year.

• Promote scheme to measure each household's recycling and reward them with vouchers exchangeable for goods.

Accountability

• Information about mayoral advisers will be available on the web. Contact details and register of interests will also be available online.

• A pledge not to run for more than two terms in office.
