Well, can we refuse it?

Yeah, no-one wants it

The dealing room here (about 400 people) went nuts. Suggest you leave the country for three weeks in summer 2012. Me, I'm going to be watching the Olympics.

If there are two reasons for joy, it is that the whole thing fucked Chirac, and that transport will get better. On the bad side, we will probably end up paying for it from here to 2026, by which time I hope that I will not be paying taxes anyway.

We got masses of tooting cars outside (as opposed to cars in Tooting). Oh well, best to not be a grinch and to go with the flow. I suppose that if it keeps property prices high, that by 2012 I will be close to thinking about selling up anyway.

That does make me feel better about the "it's going to be great for our kids" brigade.

It had better be, because they're the ones who will end up paying for it :-)

Well, our kids are going to take the hit for overblown civil service pensions, ID cards etc, so adding another straw to the camel's back makes no odds does it?

True enough. It's all so much smoke in the wind anyway. By about 2040 all the final demands will come in and that'll be that. Just in time for me to sit in a rocking chair on the porch with a shotgun laughing. No, make that cackling.
