Agreed, especially since the economic case for the Croxley Link is
AIUI partly built on closing Watford Met and releasing the land for
housing development.

Who are the Hillingdon English Democrats...POWER TO THE PEOPLEEEEEEEE!

Another variation on UKIP ? Apparently some bloke called Gary Bushell is
their candidate for the Mayoralty of Greater London :-
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_Democrats which seems to mention
desires on the territory of a neighbouring country, a policy which largely
fell out of favour in the rest of Europe about 1938.


Oh no, it's all the rage in trendsetting New Europe. None of the former
Yugoslavian countries would be seen dead without a claim on someone else's
territory!


The Lonely Planet book "Western Balkans" says they struggled to find a
name for the volume, having rejected "Greater [insert name of country]
and the Occupied Territories"


Brilliant! File under 'too good to check' ...
