00:00It's a pinch me moment. It's just a huge honour to have his Manchester King bestowing me with this honour.
00:07My mum's here and she's been emotional since it was announced during the first and today's just a great day for the family really.
00:15Well, I've got the pleasure of working closely with the King. We were just comparing who's a bigger workaholic.
00:21He was very chuffed that he'd managed to personally give me this honour and he actually apologised for it taking so long, which is not a problem at all.
00:29Obviously from my background being the son of immigrants, my parents coming here from Pakistan is a big deal for us.

00:43There's lots of things we've done which we're really proud of.
00:45Making sure every child goes to a primary school in London gets a free school meal.
00:49Cleaning up the air is really important.
00:51Making sure that we invest in housing that people can afford, council housing.
00:59Thanks for watching.
