😫 We've had prior examples see XR and they just didn't move the overall politics.

But the OP was Bromley. So this is getting further and further off track.

The XR charge didn't do anything much politically and in respect of the voters of Bromley they are minor in London or national terms.

If national or the mayor imposed it any pushback is quite minor as portion of national/London voters.

My spare PAYG is a Nokia 3410. Pretty sure that unstealable.

Genius.

That may be so on the latter but frankly thats why Gov needs to step in

Bit of spend on an advertising blitz for ToU; old style public info & then req suppliers to default SVR to (a flavour of) ToU (bar PSR if we want to be cautious)

Could req suppliers to have 📈 % on ToU but = slower rollout

I realise Gov has no discernable spine but obv they could make this happen if they wanted to. Oh they might have to weather some bad headlines in the TG or the Mail (Plus ca change...) but it would delivery actual cash savings for essentially no HMT cost.

No, yes and prob not more than the regeneration jobs. LI can and do move relatively easily.

But the reply on 1&2 is tough luck. We need to build and it has to be somewhere. Of the many somewheres Bromley actually is a pretty good fit
