Most tube lines at 5pm on a weekday in the city have trains that you have
to squeeze in to. It's part of the fun of commuting in London. Well, fun
if you are pressed up closely to some nice woman, but not as nice on a hot
day if you've some fat sweaty herbert holding a ceiling strap in front of
your face!!!

Or worse still, some arrogant f**fer wh can't wait for the next train so you
have his groin presses into you arse.

CrossRail has been needed for years. But the Government fudges rail
projects in the main in favour of road expansion.


And what road building schemes have Nu Labour invested in in the last 11
years while they have done nothing on Cross Rail and come to that the Tories
before didn't engage in any massive road building programmes so in all that
is a red herring.
