High Court Judge orders end to Croydon Council unlawful LTN (Including Holmesdale Road)

Yes definitely no chance of an amalgamation.

Raises an interesting scenario with City Status though, we’ve obviously tried a few times over the years to become one, and been rejected each time. Culturally and geographically we are quite intertwined with L.B. of Bromley; financially they are in a much sounder state. I wonder if a joint bid as “City of Croydon & Bromley”… in the style of “City of Brighton & Hove”, would be workable and beneficial.

Dunno about best combination on our council, it’s the worst of all worlds currently, very few decent ones, I’m sure there’s a handful but no more than that. And that dastardly Mayor Perry is as bent as a 3p coin.

There used to be a 3 p coin
I remember the coin but not sure if it was actually 3 p or just called a thrupenny bit.
Older posters can assist.
