2012, Graeme Wall remarked:
Public transport, or a fair-ground ride! (As in people's opinions,
not the
sponsor's intentions)

My thoughts exactly: The UK no longer makes goods that anyone wants
to buy. HMG missed the golden opportunity offered by docklands.

According to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Manufac...United_Kingdom,
"In June 2010 British Manufacturing accounted for 8.2% of the
workforce and 12% of the national output."


I'm intrigued to know what "golden" opportunity HMG missed in Docklands.


Disneyland Essex?


Isn't that just up the road in the Lea Valley?
