    Time to automate the tube

    Copenhagen's Metro is fully automated and has won an award. If anyone is still not convinced by safety of an unmanned system, there's some interesting techie news here:

    Google gets Nevada driving licence for self-drive car

    Nevada now allows self driven cars and Google's self drive car has been tested out on the streets of California, having covered 140,000 miles without any accident apart from a minor rear end shunt by a human driver. Now Boris is back in, high time he started automating the London tube and getting shot of those £50k+ door operatives.

    RMT leader Alistair Crowley can go back to occultism, he was good at that.
