Default [OT] Postal counties to be dropped from the Postcode AddressFile

Evening all,

Not related to transport, but a topic which flares up here now and then:

Oh, good. Perhaps it will finally persuade websites not to insist on a
county, which I find quite irritating when I've already given London as
the town/city name.

I was particularly pleased to see the 'Romford is/is not in Essex'
argument being brought up immediately in the comments. Now, could someone
get on there and tell them about Metropolitan Kent?


The Met doesn't have any stations in Kent.
