Default Turning London orange

In message , at 18:01:42 on Fri, 23 Sep
2016, Mizter T remarked:
The London mayor aims to deliver better, more coordinated local
services to local voters.

In the same way he aimed not to raise fares, and within days of taking
office had to retract?

He's delivering exactly what he said he would: a TfL fares freeze. He
never promised to freeze other fares, and has no ability to do so.


Actually he did, and I agree he doesn't.


He didn't promise any more than that, and didn't "retract" anything.

From his manifesto...

"Freeze TfL transport fares for four years [...]"
(page 8, PDF page 9)

The paragraph from his manifesto which was quoted the most was:

"Londoners won't pay a penny more for their travel in 2020 than they do
today."

Londoners don't only use trains where TfL sets the fares.
