Another clueless policy from Boris Johnson; the capital’s clueless candidate
March 3rd, 2008
Commenting on the launch of Boris Johnson’s Transport policies today, Liberal Democrat Mayoral candidate, Brian Paddick, said:
“I lived for years in Outer London. I don’t just talk about the issues, I know about the issues.
“Boris Johnson’s promise to improve trains and the policing of stations shows he has no idea what the Mayor has control over. The British Transport Police and the railways are beyond the Mayor’s remit. Boris Johnson’s pledge today is little more than an empty promise from a clueless candidate.
“No wonder the chairman of TravelWatch pulled out of his launch, I wouldn’t want to be associated with such naïve and unworkable policies either.
“Outer London, especially in the South, needs trams and buses linked to train services. Express buses already exist but Boris Johnson was probably too busy in Oxfordshire to notice what’s actually happening in London.”
