I don't entirely go along with Jenkins' thesis and note he gave a closure
period for Albert Bridge at variance with the photo attached to his
article (presumably an editorial rather than his cock-up). However, he has
a bit of a point, doesn't he?


As I said before, this is why Boris was furious about the Thames being
removed, since it was the only barrier keeping out the South London
hordes.

It makes sense that, having put the Thames back, he is now setting
about reducing the opportunities to cross it.
