Overground Re-Branding. I thought I would have ago and it didn't take a bunch of outsourced consultants and hundreds of thousands of pounds of taxpayer money. Poppy Line - Dedicated to those brave service men and women who gave their lives for this country and continue to do so. Three Lions Line. Dedicated to a group of footballers who actually won the world cup, as this is gender non specific this can include the women if they ever do. The Paddy's Line. Dedicated to the people who built most of our infrastructure. Alternate name The Green Line. The Blitz Line dedicated to the population that stuck it out for 6 years and didn't whinge about their Lattes or internet connections. The Financial Services Line. Yes because the city has been the single biggest contributor to funding the economy since WW2. The Public Service Line. Okay an acknowledgment to all those who have worked in our public services. My other suggestions to Khan for tube lines. Snowflake Line That's enough.
All very nice & sensible suggestions, but, i'm sorry to say, your 6 lines are, well, quite frankly, Racist. . . .
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

Lamé is an active member of, and fundraiser for, the Labour Party.

There is an advert on TV at the moment from London Transport that says All London buses pass emissions tests at "the tail pipe". Why is it then that to have a ULEZ compilate car it isn't checked that way? Its only based on the engine Euro Category. I'm sure that if cars were checked this way most would comply with emissions regulations. Just shows its not about us breathing clean air and all about generating money. I was at Ernest Bevin school with Sadiq Kunt, sorry Khan and really regret not giving him the odd kicking or ten.
It should be quite simple to achieve. The MOT test includes an exhaust check that calculates the emissions. Even if the vehicle is ‘old’ it can still produce a healthy reading below the engine’s assumed uncleanliness. The MOT register can then be marked that the assigned reg number is ULEZ compliant thereby negating a charge when entering London.

So why is he allowing London buses to be tested this way and not the commuter in their Ford Focus? It just stacks up that this 'ULEZ' charge will sooner than later just become a congestion charge applicable to everyone but the chosen few.

I'd be really interested to see the justification for the spending on 'lingerie' ..... or an explanation of what it is that they are all sh*tting themselves about. Lingerie for women with p****es and v*****l moisturiser for child brides.

“Squads of Ulez enforcers dressed in black, faces covered with masks, terrorising communities at the beck and call of their Labour mayor master, who has implemented a tax on driving, forcing people to stay inside or go underground. “Gripped by the tendrils of rising crime, London citizens stay inside. The streets are quiet.” The rest of it, including scenes from New York supposed to be London, here. In the GE the tories are likely to be even more unhinged than this.
Sounds like a very balanced take on the state of play in our glorious capital city.
