Back home almost #Lille #Beckton

A 70s #TV star, #musician and #actor from #London has suffered life-changing #injuries following a #roadrage attack in #Beckton #EastLondon

#MetPol have been unable to find the attacker due to lack of evidence (that area isn't so well covered by CCTV) - which worryingly means anyone driving there is at the mercy of any angry man who chooses to use #violence

The #ReformUKLtd candidate who has renounced the company in #WestHam and #Beckton won't make a difference, as the CUP even with RUL voters combined back into it is still set to lose that fight.

But the candidate who did in #Erewash might.

Erewash is a LCP-vs-CUP race that the CUP is set to lose on current MRP polling but can likely win if the disaffected RUL voters switch to the CUP bringing it back into error margin territory.

Such a stink, where half of #London's dirty doings pass through. And in the foreground, #Beckton #Sewage Treatment Works!

I love #exploring #London - even the #smelly bits!

Transport for London and partners progress public transport proposals to unlock Thamesmead and Beckton Riverside housing and development

PN-067 Proposals, subject to a detailed review of options, include a potential cross-river DLR extension from Gallions Reach to Thamesmead via Beckton Riverside, boosting connectivity and providing new journey options for east London  Up to 25,000-30,000 new homes could be unlocked along the route of the DLR extension in the Royal Borough of Greenwich and London Borough of Newham  An improved Bus service using new bus lanes from Woolwich to Abbey Wood via Thamesmead would also improve local connectivity and capacity in the wider Thamesmead area with affordable, accessible and frequent connections to Elizabeth line and DLR services  The extension would also support the creation of up to 10,000 jobs  Following work with partners, a full Strategic Outline Case has been submitted to the Government for support for the next stage of work 

Since my previous Beckton offering got no traction, how about this one: Beckton Gas Works in the process of being dressed as Vietnam, for Kubrick's 'Full Metal Jacket'.
