I'm not talking about monitoring. I'm talking about interacting directly and getting those in the Mosques involved. That is the only way we can make headway against the extremists, is to bring in those that believe in Islam the way it is supposed to be represented, not warped and twisted by those who wish to inspire terror and massacre innocents. The moderates have to actively work with the authorities so prevent extremists from striking. The mayor is involved because this has to start on a local level and the mayor is probably the best representative to initiate talks with the Muslims in their respective communities.

As for terrorism not involved in what the mayor announced, it wasn't but it is involved with the case that the OP brought forth. It looks like the people are more concerned about short term issues like extremists and terrorism than long term issues. My post was supporting the fact that the long term goals are just as valid but so are short term goals. Both should be at the forefront, not just one.

That has been done for more than a decade and it's ongoing so unless you have details on how you would want it to change I don't know what to say in response.

The OP remarked that there are idiots (mainly non Londoners) who will always go "but what about terrorism" which was what he found in the comments and now in this thread.

My post was supporting the fact that the long term goals are just as valid but so are short term goals.

That makes absolutely no sense. All goals, long term as well as short term are discussed seperately and you do not have to bring every single issue up every single time. It's OK to talk about restricting emissions without mentioning terrorism, Islam or anything else than ways to restrict emissions.
