Those just aren't important enough, not like the womens football team or less than 1/10 of the immigration to the UK in the past year's worth of jamaicans that turned up between 1945 and 1960, or an aids clinic!
It's so sad watching London slowly destroyed, even from up north. I only ever come down for the footy, but I used to love our capital and its heritage. So sad to watch.
@CalumetColorado as a 10-year-old kid, I went with my family on a half-term holiday to London in October 1978. Back then it were a much better place & thankfully not a hint of woke bullshit that has destroyed so many things in recent years
Why is he still mayor? What will it take to kick him out? He is squandering money again and again, its our money we should have a say, government the people want him gone what dont you understand?
Its nice to know our tax payers money is going to things that really are important, nevermind combating the housing crisis or crimes in London. Well done Khan...
Six million to rebrand the names of railway lines whilst striking employees demand more money and the whole city is riddled with crime…well, I’m glad he’s got his priorities straight!
He shouldn't bother changing the names instead they need to give the entire underground a bloody good clean, trains are filthy, platforms filthy, escalators filthy. The bloody lot of it looks like a 3rd world country.
Barking mad, we have had these names forever they are part of our history, I would always still refer to them by the old names and I guess most feel the same.
What old names. The overground doesn't have official line names at present. Do you still call the bit by New Coss the East London Line, or Silverlink in North London. I can understand someone not being a fan of the name choices, but having names can only be helpful surely?
Despicable, disingenuous, insulting, arrogant, appalling, sickening, hateful, disgraceful, high-handedness. How dare this upstart do this . He makes me sick.
I was in London the other day and I spoke to a gentleman who lives there, we got onto the subject of Khan and he said one word, which sums Khan up. C***. John Dalberg-Acton was spot on.
We should welcome these changes if, as I assume, Sadiq Khan has the following in mind: The Windrush Line will be extended to Oxfordshire: The Lioness Line will be extended to Longleat; The Liberty Line will be extended to Philadelphia (and will be free to ride); The Suffragette Line will play Paul McCartney songs; The Weaver Line will become a meandering route; and The Mildmay line will be sponsored by the Met Office and will have regular updates to its name such as 'The Blisteringly Cold February Line' or 'The Phew What A Scorcher August Line'
So this is how he spends £6.3m of the ULEZ money collected, instead of doing something constructive with it. Like most Government projects....you might as well double that figure and add VAT. This will be closer to the real costs that will be incurred.
The pot holes in London .go unrepaired. The overspending on rainbow 🌈 coloured road crossing.. and now... we have this nonsense of molesting the signposts. basically to waste money in the wrong places
Out of Order ...As an ex Londoner, London, Tube lines are iconic names known all over the world since the start, get him out ..oh, none WOKE people left London because of this ...UK as a whole should be able to vote him out, Its England ...
Anything to get the Windrush into it. Remember that the Windrush people were not meant to come here. We basically got lumbered with them. Tickets were sold to people because the boat had spare space. We never wanted then people to start with.
Awful names for stations. Honestly, Mildmay in honour of the hospital that treated HIV patients and "Lioness" seem unnecessarily divisive choices. I can only hope the next mayor has the power to change them.
Good to see the N@zi Holiday ship getting a shout out with the Windrush Line. Also good to see him highlighting the issue of modern day slavery in Leicester with the Weaver Line, and even Millwall FC ladies get a shout out. Well done you complete Khant.
Londoners can not get to the ballot box fast enough to vote for him, so something must be right. And those who can not be bothered to vote, well this is what you get as your reward for your laziness.
Why doesn't he rename all the stations and then no one will have a clue where they are going? What an incredibly horrible little man Khan is. One insult after another to my parents' generation who fought WW2 to secure our future and rebuilt the country after it.
Waste of money but remember Rishi has wasted £100b on a train that has no start and is no faster than the train that’s in service.. all a waste of our money
He should have named them the poison line, the pollution line, hospital line , death line, don’t breathe line, bad air line. My mother’s council take was raised by 15% , bets she is over the moon her money is being spent wisely. Surely could that money not be spent on saving the stabbing, helping the homeless, cleaning the trains and tubes of bad air etc.
Totally unecessary to change the names. Just an excuse to spend taxpayers money for his own aggrandisement. Another thing for the next Mayor to reverse.
As a Londoner I've noticed that very few people appear to support him, even Muslims i know won't vote for him. The problem is in the Government Conservative Party which failed to promote Shaun Bailey in 2021 and the don't appear to be promoting Susan Hall either. London is increasingly divided along racial and cultural lines and its getting worse. The government has introduced the First Past The Post system this year instead of the Proportional Representation system thats been previously used. That's not enough. They need to push Susan Hall as their candidate. Shaun Bailey would've won in 2021, but without Boris Johnson backing him he failed to get elected.
The position of London mayor needs to be made so it needs permission from central government before anything can be done. That would stop vanity projects from being implemented. This Khan is just a complete arshole.
It could have been worse, we could have had the Steven Lawrence line, the Grenfell line, the Diversity line, the Pride line, etc ......gotta get this tedious man out
How about these : The Londonistan Line . The lawless , violent streets of London Line . The twerking , Macarena-dancing cartoon police line . The kneeling to Marxists and running away from rioters line . The appalling narcissistic mayor who blames the public for having nice things which is why they get robbed and mugged line .

Barking mad, we have had these names forever they are part of our history, I would always still refer to them by the old names and I guess most feel the same.
What old names. The overground doesn't have official line names at present. Do you still call the bit by New Coss the East London Line, or Silverlink in North London. I can understand someone not being a fan of the name choices, but having names can only be helpful surely?
Robbery Line
How was this guy handed so much power without safeguards to real him in or sack him for misuse of position?
Despicable, disingenuous, insulting, arrogant, appalling, sickening, hateful, disgraceful, high-handedness. How dare this upstart do this . He makes me sick.
You're not keen on him then?
I was in London the other day and I spoke to a gentleman who lives there, we got onto the subject of Khan and he said one word, which sums Khan up. C***. John Dalberg-Acton was spot on.
That is an insult to something that is useful, unlike sad iq who is a useless tool.
WHAT GIVES HIM THE RIGHT TO EVEN DO THIS!! NO RESPECT FOR THE PEOPLE OF LONDON OR THE UK!! VOTE HIM OUT NOW!! VOTE REFORM UK.
I am so sick of this little narcissistic prik
Is this a diversion or is it to obliterate pre-invasion history.
London is lost!
When people are without housing... What on earth? Waste waste waste.
Unbelievable. I though I'd seen it all but wait...!
We should welcome these changes if, as I assume, Sadiq Khan has the following in mind:
The Windrush Line will be extended to Oxfordshire: The Lioness Line will be extended to Longleat;
The Liberty Line will be extended to Philadelphia (and will be free to ride);
The Suffragette Line will play Paul McCartney songs; The Weaver Line will become a meandering route; and
The Mildmay line will be sponsored by the Met Office and will have regular updates to its name such as 'The Blisteringly Cold February Line' or 'The Phew What A Scorcher August Line'
I recently saw someone call him a “Repellent little runt”.
Or sidick khanage khant
You misheard the last word 👍
Better just to vote out the Mayor of London
Stab line, Corrosive substance line, robbery line
Diversity line 🙄
Palestine line
Line of Coke
6 million? What for a few hundred new signs?
The boat was called the Empire Windrush. Why not call it the Empire line, that would upset the Brit haters.
What’s wrong with having a Cockney line since the name will be extinct soon. 😱
So this is how he spends £6.3m of the ULEZ money collected, instead of doing something constructive with it. Like most Government projects....you might as well double that figure and add VAT. This will be closer to the real costs that will be incurred.
He enjoys upsetting indigenous English people . Some sort of revenge .
The pot holes in London .go unrepaired. The overspending on rainbow 🌈 coloured road crossing.. and now... we have this nonsense of molesting the signposts. basically to waste money in the wrong places
Out of Order ...As an ex Londoner, London, Tube lines are iconic names known all over the world since the start, get him out ..oh, none WOKE people left London because of this ...UK as a whole should be able to vote him out, Its England ...
Anything to get the Windrush into it. Remember that the Windrush people were not meant to come here. We basically got lumbered with them. Tickets were sold to people because the boat had spare space. We never wanted then people to start with.
True 3:50
Absolutely disgusting this man needs to be stopped
How am I only hearing about this now? Was this always on the cards or just a project and spend on a whim? Who did Khan consult????
Awful names for stations. Honestly, Mildmay in honour of the hospital that treated HIV patients and "Lioness" seem unnecessarily divisive choices. I can only hope the next mayor has the power to change them.
Let's just call it the WOKE line.. thats already what people are calling it
You just couldn’t make this nonsense up
Good to see the N@zi Holiday ship getting a shout out with the Windrush Line. Also good to see him highlighting the issue of modern day slavery in Leicester with the Weaver Line, and even Millwall FC ladies get a shout out. Well done you complete Khant.
The Norush line would have been better.
Somebody ? Stop this man, he is a Lunatic.
Londoners can not get to the ballot box fast enough to vote for him, so something must be right.
And those who can not be bothered to vote, well this is what you get as your reward for your laziness.
When he's finally put out of office can we change them back, please, pretty please?
someone is telling him to do this, like they are the to the rest of parliament.
What a scandalous waste of £millions.
Accidentally telling the truth. Sadiq?
I despise Khan almost as much as I despise Blair.
Why doesn't he rename all the stations and then no one will have a clue where they are going? What an incredibly horrible little man Khan is. One insult after another to my parents' generation who fought WW2 to secure our future and rebuilt the country after it.
It's actually TfL that names all the lines, so they're mostly to blame. He just signs it off.
Bring back London Transport.
Six million quid? We could have a garden bridge across the Thames for that.
Yep they renamed Windscale for similar reasons. We were not fooled by that either.
Waste of money but remember Rishi has wasted £100b on a train that has no start and is no faster than the train that’s in service.. all a waste of our money
How this bloke has never been bumped off is beyond me
Is there anything legally or politically be done to stop this? Something like this can't be legal
He should have named them the poison line, the pollution line, hospital line , death line, don’t breathe line, bad air line. My mother’s council take was raised by 15% , bets she is over the moon her money is being spent wisely. Surely could that money not be spent on saving the stabbing, helping the homeless, cleaning the trains and tubes of bad air etc.
May be a stabbed line😮
We really are a gutless country to allow this
London Mayor Sadiq Khan is just a sad joke!
Totally unecessary to change the names. Just an excuse to spend taxpayers money for his own aggrandisement. Another thing for the next Mayor to reverse.
As a Londoner I've noticed that very few people appear to support him, even Muslims i know won't vote for him. The problem is in the Government Conservative Party which failed to promote Shaun Bailey in 2021 and the don't appear to be promoting Susan Hall either. London is increasingly divided along racial and cultural lines and its getting worse. The government has introduced the First Past The Post system this year instead of the Proportional Representation system thats been previously used. That's not enough. They need to push Susan Hall as their candidate. Shaun Bailey would've won in 2021, but without Boris Johnson backing him he failed to get elected.
Shaun would have been a far better Mayor hands down.
Could someone please tell me why the rails have to have a name in the first place and how can it possibly cost six million pounds!?!?
The position of London mayor needs to be made so it needs permission from central government before anything can be done.
That would stop vanity projects from being implemented.
This Khan is just a complete arshole.
The government can throw this man out for the way he has trashed London he is a constant liar.... Lock him up...
It could have been worse, we could have had the Steven Lawrence line, the Grenfell line, the Diversity line, the Pride line, etc ......gotta get this tedious man out
What about the lions??? Gender discrimination 😁😁😁
No . Discrimination against men is allowed by woke lefties everywhere . In fact it’s encouraged esp if they are white and heterosexual.
How about these :
The Londonistan Line .
The lawless , violent streets of London Line .
The twerking , Macarena-dancing cartoon police line .
The kneeling to Marxists and running away from rioters line .
The appalling narcissistic mayor who blames the public for having nice things which is why they get robbed and mugged line .
You get what you vote for. I’m just surprised the lines are in English
Some stupid consultancy firm no doubt was paid loads of cash. For one of the steam and the gaslight (not the modern verb) generation it does nothing.
This renaming must be STOPPED!!!!!!!!!
I can't quite get my head around the fact that a rail line is to be named after an unsuccessful women's football team.
Worst air quality in London is on London Underground - but naturally ULEZ expander Khan won't do anything about that.
So there are no other more important things to do?
Sick to death of this utter narcissist - his agenda has been clear from the start, in my opinion.
Cant you rebrand him back to packistan
U know my great great grandfather and great grandfather fought for the British, Burma war and ww1-2, the British have stolen lives of Pakistan and used us to win their wars… just saying Pakistan is much better than uk … it’s disgusting here
