Well what has Livingstone (and I mean Livingstone, not the creation of a

But that's because the bits of the transport system he controls (via
TfL) are mostly north of the river, and the spread of Oyster PAYG is a
knock-on effect of that (all of it so far has been by having a foot in
the door with tube inter-availability). Buses and the bits of the tube
that reach down there have had equal upgrades, haven't they? And if
the rumour about bidding for Southern is true then it looks like he's
trying to fix TfL's influence problem, too.
