  • Poems on the Underground

    • Reference: 2020/2924
    • Question by: David Kurten
    • Meeting date: 17 September 2020
    Given the paucity of commercial advertising currently available to TfL to entertain London’s commuters on the tube, I welcome the return of ‘Poems on the Underground’. However, the current offerings available read like the maunderings of the disturbed. Whilst I am well aware that there are some in our city who are not keen on British culture, the English language has always offered a rich poetic tradition. Is it possible that those involved in this initiative could be persuaded to provide Londoners with something slightly more uplifting in these difficult times?

    Barnet was awarded over £1million from the Mayor's Outer London Fund to improve important public spaces in North Finchley, including the 'artsdepot'.
