So suggests this report, based on a meeting of the London Assembly's
Transport Committee - Kent County Council being the active objector to
the
TfL rail takeover plan in revenge:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-london-33066006

Hopefully it'll be an idea that'll surface again in the future - so long
as TfL does a good job on their new West Anglia metro routes.

um, just where is the proof of the statement

"But not only did it take a dim view, it exacted revenge on the mayor "

It just seems to be made up ******** to me

Watch the transport committee webcast and listen to what the reps from
Kent CC said. I've watched all 2.5 hours of it and I'm very clear
about what was said. Tom Edwards of the BBC was at City Hall during
the meeting so he may have put a journalistic flourish on what was
said but the basic detail is correct.

Kent CC objected to the Estuary
Airport and refused to agree to the rail devolution proposal.

None of that is contested

but where the proof of the link?
