i doubt it will ever go all the way to taking out the C zone altogether, but it's good that the western extension that was put in a very short time ago at a cost of millions to the taxpayers will now be removed at a cost of millions. on top of the olympics, i bet it's great to be a london resident and tax payer. why people persist in living in that shithole i'll never know.
