What a waste of ****ing money.

[IT Minion]

Iconic. That doesn’t count.

If you can't count that high it's not my problem.

They were an epic waste of money and will probably be disappearing completely in the next five years.

Wrong because he's simply wasting money that should be spent elsewhere

The voters thought it was a good thing. If he hadn't done it he would be accused of breaking manifesto promises, now he has delivered he is accused of wasting money.

Was TFL in the financial mess that he got it in when he made that manifesto pledge? He made a pledge to give all in London over the age of 65 free tube travel 24/7. During Covid he restricted it until after 9.00am. After covid, he made it permanent. There’s a broken promise for those over 65 that use public transport. Can’t find the money to let people continue to travel on the trains as promised but can find the money to rename all the overground lines. Ironic, or what?

Ironic, or what?

Political decisions, some will agree with them some won't. I take it he will be voted out if he is doing so badly? Not long now and Londoners can elect someone else if they wish.

I shall bow to Jago's expertise on the issue:

He doesn't go into the politics of it, but rather why it was needed, and whether the new names work.

 

[Murdochcat]

So doing what he was voted to do, is wrong?

Blinkered at the very least.

Doesn't matter if you agree or disagree with the subject, it's the action that's important

So you applaud wasting money?

So you applaud wasting money?

Money wasn't wasted.

True, but the Muslim vote will probably keep him in.

He probably will get the Muslim vote given his opponent.

Most Londoners think Tory mayoral candidate Susan Hall’s social media activity is racist, poll finds

Research conducted for Hope Not Hate shows majority in capital think the Conservative cannot fairly represent everyone if elected

www.theguardian.com

Most people who see her twitter feed think she's racist. But not everyone is on twitter.

It might make a nice change of the Tories fielded someone who didn't engage in racism for London mayor, just to make a change.

So you applaud wasting money?

Like the Tories show how that's done you mean. No.

I do applaud politicians doing what they promised, whether I agree with the decision or not
