Ken opposed the PPP scheme.

Until he got into power, when he promptly threw in the towel.

He was opposing the scheme whilst he was in power - he was working
against it in the courts until they ruled against him. After that, LU
was transferred to TfL with the PPP in place, and he had no choice but
to work with it.

When Ken came to power in 2000, he had control over TfL but TfL did not
have control over LU.
