Apart from Ken Livingstone declaring it to be world famous London

Have I missed something? In what sense has Ken Livingstone
"banned" the Beck map?

I think it was a reference to the fate of the Routemaster...

Oh, *that* was what I missed! Thanks, Helen.

Still, you can't blame Livingstone for banning the Routemaster, what
with its external staircase, and the peculiar clothes that its
passengers wore ...

Interesting, didn't know ST922 ran on that last day, would have liked to
