The firm working on the line has admitted it needs at least 10 weekend

That'll work well underground.

ROFL! That's a typical Standard error. They mean moving-block
signalling.

Some more dodgy journalism...

"The line, the Tube's newest, has been disrupted more than 100 times
in two years" - what's that, 100 weekends? 100 unscheduled
disruptions?

"The Jubilee line upgrade will allow up to 30 trains an hour to run at
peak times — of particular benefit between Westminster and Canary
Wharf, where it is standing room only in rush hours." So there are
seats available throughout the peaks between Baker Street and
Westminster? And after the upgrade, everyone will get a seat on the
entire line?
