There have been upmteen calls today on social media for Mr Khan to
somehow use Mr Wolmar's "talents" on transport matters.

Does he need it? Kahn was himself a transport minister under Brown,
having succeeded Lord Adonis.

The track record of Transport Ministers knowing much about the subject is
distinctly poor.

He wasn't too bad. I even followed him in that role on Twitter. Being a
Londoner all his life (even when at University) I'm sure he's very well
aware of the transport options in London.

His father was a bus driver, do he does have some inside knowledge on the
subject.
