I noticed that one of the small changes to the ED to London Bridge timetable this week was that the 08.59 had morphed into the 09.00. No problem with that, but for the last three days it's been consistently late arriving at London Bridge - it's scheduled to arrive at 09.14, but has arrived at 09.23, 09.24 and 09.23 respectively (I didn't travel in on Monday, so don't know what the timing was like then). Yes, I'm sad enough to have noted it down...


Apparently the problems have all been related to other trains, either coming in on the other lines and delaying the 09.00 or making it wait outside the station for a platform. My concern is that these delays might be 'timetabled in', so to speak. If this pattern repeats next week, I'll be firing off emails.


Thank you for allowing me to vent.

      Is Rachel Reeves becoming the new Liz Truss?

      No and Wes Streeting is heading in this direction because he knows the NHS is broken and was never built to cope with the demands currently being placed on it. A paid-for approach in some shape or form, and massive reforms, is the only way the NHS can survive - neither of which the left or unions will be pleased about.

      Labour talks about, and hopefully will do something about, the determinants of poor health.  They're picked up the early Sunak policy on smoking and vapes.  Let's see how far they tackle obesity and inactivity. I'd rather the money was spent on these any other interventions eg mental health, social care and SEN, rather than seeing the NHS as income generating.

      I think it's connected with the totem pole renovation celebrations They have passed now, but the notice has been there since then (at least that's when I first saw it - I passed it on the 484 and also took a photo!)

      Labour was damned, no matter what it did, when it came to the budget. It loves go on about the black hole, but if Labour had had its way, we'd have been in lockdown for longer and the black hole would be even bigger.  Am I only the one who thinks it's time the NHS became revenue-generating? Not private, but charging small fees for GP appts, x-rays etc? People who don't turn up for GP and out-patient appointments should definitely be charged a cancellation fee. When I lived in Norway I got incredible medical treatment, including follow up appointments, drugs, x-rays, all for £200. I was more than happy to pay it and could afford to. For fairness, make it somehow means-tested.  I am sure there's a model in there somewhere that would be fair to everyone. It's time we stopped fetishising something that no longer works for patient or doctor.  As for major growth, it's a thing of the past, no matter where in the world you live, unless it's China. Or unless you want a Truss-style, totally de-regulated economy and love capitalism with a large C.
