Liz Truss said policing in the capital 'isn't good enough at the moment'.
A spokesperson for London Labour said: "Sadiq's top priority is keeping London safe, which is why he has invested more than any previous mayor in tackling crime and its complex causes.
"Towards night-time it does tend to get a little unsafe; but the government and authorities are being extra responsible. There are cameras everywhere, security everywhere."'They need to listen' "The police need to listen and be out there whenever things do get called in; at night especially," she said.The prime minister's comments come at a challenging time for the Met, which has been hit by a number of scandals including the murder of Sarah Everard by a police officer, the strip-search of Child Q, and the failure to investigate properly the serial killer Stephen Port.
