Retrocop,
I read further than the third paragraph, and it said this...
// The accusation is vehemently denied by Transport for London (TfL), the mayoral body in charge of major roads and all the capital's traffic lights. But TfL has now admitted, in a written answer to Conservative members of the Greater London Authority that more than 300 traffic lights have been altered in the past eight months – but for a variety of reasons none of which, it says, are to deliberately create traffic chaos.
Traffic light timings, it claims, have been altered to give pedestrians longer to cross roads, to give priority to buses and to deter cars from major snarl-ups around roadwork schemes in places like Trafalgar Square. //
Parsing is constantly being amended all the time, during Livingstone tenure, Boris’ and Khan’s today.
I ask again, if it was a scam, why did Johnson support it for 8 years?
