The mayor of London, Sadiq Khan says he is "looking forward" to answering questions about the sacking of former Met Commissioner Cressida Dick in front of a City Hall Committee in November.

The mayor of London has become the first sitting mayor to be formally summonsed, after the publication of Sir Tom Winsor’s report into issues around the commissioner’s departure.

Last month, the report found Mr Khan had “breached due process” and committed an “abuse of the power conferred upon him”, after the commissioner was “intimidated” into quitting.
