Just returning briefly to your exchange with Joanne [Joanne McCartney AM] regarding buses in outer London, something I have been banging on about for some considerable time, speaking for, for example, Sutton - and just for once I will not mention the tram, although I just did - it is particularly poorly served by public transport.
