Default Banglatown: calls to rename East End station

How about the station is called Shoreditch High Street and they have
little signs underneath saying for Banglatown. Seems a straightforward
compromise.


The current plan is "Shoreditch High Street" with the subtitle "For
Brick Lane". This may even be part of the planning permission - I
can't find a reference right now.

If it matters, the entrance will be on Wheler Street around halfway
between Shoreditch High Street and Brick Lane. It'll be on the west
side of the street, so facing east towards Brick Lane. It'll also be
surrounded by skyscrapers in the near future, which would make the
name "Banglatown" very out of place.
