And is Boris correct in saying that £46.4m has ALREADY been spent on these

I wouldn't be surprised. They put a lot of work into WLT - all those
years of planning and consultations would have cost a few quid.


Its amazing how much money gets spent just so apparachiks can avoid
having to actually do what their paid for and make a decision.


I thought consultants were paid to take the blame for decisions that
have already been made, and consultations were designed to give
punters no option but to support the decisions already made (apart
from "other comments" etc).

If they've changed their minds, it won't be as a result of
consultations, but it's a decision followed by a different decision.
So they'll have to pay for yet more consultations to justify that as
well.
