It's the GLA's logo.

Pretend the OP asked, "In the GLA logo, Why is the ON at the end on
LONDON always in red whilst the rest of the text is in blue?"

Yes, it's pretty daft to have the "ON" in a differnet colour to the
"LOND". It's not even consistent: the "ON" at the top of the page is in
red whereas at the foot of the page there's a logo for London Development
Agency where "ON" is in green.

Still, it gives the image consultants something to make them feel
important!

Ending in may zeroes.

Wasn't the LondON logo always planned to have colour variations? I
recall orange/green being touted for St Patrick's day events.
