Tram Trouble, Pay per Mile scrapped, and the modified d'Hondt electoral system.

Series 3 Episode 1

On Inside City Hall this episode, London Assembly Members Neil Garratt and new co-host Emma Best discuss:

  • Election Results. Including a sales pitch for the modified d'Hondt electoral system used for electing Assembly Members.
  • Tram Trouble. Rolling stock problems on the Croydon Tram, echoing Central Line problems. The repeated fares freezes sound good, but is it short-term gain, long-term pain as they drain capital investment from London's infrastructure.
  • Pay Per Mile. The media have been reporting that Conservative pressure forced Mayor Khan to abandon plans for Pay Per Mile. That's curious because he never really admitted to having such plans! Regardless of your view, it would fundamentally change the way people think about the roads across London and such a change needs an open debate not to be snuck through.
