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
Woke Line
Gender Fluid Line (goes back and forward).
Mecca Line (This one only goes east)
Khan Line (This is a rebrand of the Circle line it just goes round and round).

That's enough.

Thanks Mayor Khan perhaps I can be your luxury holidays Tsar?

How does this global travelling fit in with the ULEZ mindset of Kahn?

All very nice & sensible suggestions, but, i'm sorry to say, your 6 lines are, well, quite frankly, Racist. . . .

Friends indeed.

In February 2020, it emerged that Lamé was paid an extra £1,000 out of Mayor of London Sadiq Khan's culture budget to host a drag act at Walthamstow Assembly Hall, which charged a £15 entry fee.


And this aspect is purely coincidental.

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.

Exactly... 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.

From what I've seen and heard of him, my opinion of him is less than impressive.
He's a short-@r5e with a big attitude. He's probably the sort of bloke that would happily socialise with certain Asian shopkeepers, if it would keep him in power.

Responsibility Deficit Disorder is a medical condition. Symptoms include inability to be corrected when wrong, false sense of superiority, desire to share personal info no else cares about, general hubris. It's a medical issue rather than pure arrogance.

Bromley council keeps a tight rein on it's budget and yet every year when I get my tax bill there is a bloody great increase from Khan which they can do nothing about but pass on to the rest of us.

He is no better than a turd and is an absolute chancer.
This Government has allowed this to continue on their watch and when Starmer gets in Khan will ramp it up even more.
He will get re-elected of course - strange that the media are not giving any publicity time to his opponents - hmm - let me think!

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.

“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.”

From the Tories 'attack-dog' opener to the election.

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.

Sadiq Khan or to be more precise TFL.


Monday 8th April I will be arriving at Kings Cross back from a Wedding. Getting home from Kings Cross is where the fun starts.

My normal route would be KX (Victoria line) to Vic station then Southeastern to Beckenham. Well it looks like all train companies south of the river are on strike and just to make it interesting so is the underground.

Which brings me to the TFL website. If I use their journey planner they have factored in no trains which is fair enough. However they have not removed the underground journeys (which they run) so keep telling me to take this or that line.

To add insult to injury you would think they would mention the strike on the home page but no, they do mention they're freezing fares.

Anyway I will have to suck it and see when I arrive at KX. Probable journey is 63 bus to Farringdon, Elizabeth line to Whitechapel, Overground to Penge West then bus to Beckenham.

TFL you need to update your website.
