That there was no demand among ordinary London people ofr a scheme like Crossrail.
that the Crossrail plot was being peddled by some very strange and suspect sources. Mainly lobbys.
That the City of London was not an economically productive entity. That the dire transport infrastructure in London was being mis-sued by Big construction and engineering conglomerates who were keen to create a Multi Billion pretext to grab the contracts. That NO evidence has been produced, even up to today, tuesday 20 may 2008, to show a correlation between a Crossrail scheme - being absent or present- and the level of economic productivity and activity in London...
