It's not a tactic, as far as I can tell. The T&WA rules (or possibly TfL's own rules about making T&WAs, not sure) require you to have an identifiable source of funding before you waste everyone's time with a public enquiry. The timing of the postponent (just before they were meant to submit it) says they simply couldn't find any. I suppose then his only 'tactical' step may have been to raise the public profile of the projects, in which case he was successful. Amazing how many posters here and elsewhere appeared (to me anyway) to see it purely as a 'Boris doesn't like the area' issue... Paul |
