But Paul doesn’t have any evidence. His opinion is what he mistakes for fact, and then he searches for crumbs of evidence that might support him. Crumbs that are easily disproved.For the record Paul, I don’t agree that there are too many cars. As usual you gaslight when it suits you. There needs to be better road management, since congestion is caused by imposing bottlenecks within an overall system. That’s precisely why the LTN schemes don’t work. But you know that, with all your vast knowledge of transport planning.Car ownership has decreased in London, as have the number of journeys made. What’s created more traffic is a massive increase in delivery vehicles. It’s well documented but blaming ‘too many cars’ suits the narrative followed by you and others.Andrew Gilligan, appointed to the TfL board by his close friend Boris Johnson, has zero knowledge of how transport networks operate. He boasts about never having learned to drive. His answer to anything is cycling, as if it’s the great panacea, when it’s plainly not. Even in London. He, and the rest of you, have been found out. He’s not even elected, yet seems to wield disproportionate power, although his threat to turn off the funding taps probably exceeds his remit.But, as has been requested, where is your evidence about Swyncombe? Strange how you go very quiet when asked such things....
