Yes and lucky for him he's not going to have to deal with the transport chaos and financial mayhem resulting from the Olympics because it looks like he doesn't have a hope in hell of winning anyway. The beleagured transport system is already running well over capacity and even with the planned initiatives there is just no way that London can support that many people. Here speaks a person who travelled on the Northern Line for 5 years up until 5 months ago!!

i used the norther line for around 8 years upto march this year - it never deserved the criticism it got !!! I found it ok as tubes go in london - would only rate the victoria and jubille line above it - the central, circle and worst by a long way was the district line imho....

never had to use it much. Last time I did was when I did 2 weeks with a mjor city law firm. Arrived 2 days after the bombs and stayed in a University Halls on Tavistock Square. The tube station I should have used to get to the office was Russell Square.

great game though - the foxes being 3-2 up with 2 mins left on the clock - only for chelsea to steal 2 late goals in injury time....

i remember having to jump off the district line (after being at sloane square after being standstill for 50 minutes) onto a bus. Ended up missing the first goal when the mighty foxes took a shock lead at stamford bridge in the carling cup...was not impressed !
