I,ve just noticed that all of the Jam Cams, provided by BBC London,
covering my area of east London - the Isle of Dogs and Blackwall
Tunnel (right through to the A2) - have been 'removed due to a TfL
fault'. Most of these cams have been kaputt for years but you would
get the occasional day when you could check the tunnel northern
approach.

Could this be a conspiracy by TfL to prevent drivers from seeing the
horrendous tailbacks and entering the boundary zone of the Congestion
Charging area to use the Rotherhithe Tunnel or Tower Bridge instead?

Rant #2. The BBC have cancelled Star Trek the Next Generation this
evening to show bloody football!!! :-(

Get Sky. Star Trek is wall-to-wall and you'll be sick of it before long.

If it's any consolation, all the jamcams in the Hammersmith area have also
been removed from the BBC site, just at the time when it would be useful to
see the effects of the Hammersmith Flyover closure.

They also get switched off during demonstrations etc. in London. The
page says Transport for London has turned them off for "operational
reasons". Why they can't just put that the truth - that the police
asked for them to be turned off - beats me.

That doesn't surprise me, but I can't remember the last time there
was any 'civil disobediance' at the Blackwall Tunnel.

But a good Trekkie will still enjoy the repeats. Just like a good
movie, there's always something to see that might have been missed
the first time(s) :-)

Drop a note to Tony, see if he can't get Lord Hutton to broaden the
scope if his enquiry.
