Will @VanessaOnAir ask @Heidi_LDN @TfL if she thinks "Concealing or denying failings, for the sake of the organisation's public image, is dishonesty on the part of the organisation for reputational benefit & constitutes a form of institutional corruption"?

Because if @BBCLondonNews @BBCTomEdwards bothered to investigate how often @TfL misleads Public & @LondonAssembly about its Poor Safety Performance—cf 1) #StopKillingBusDrivers 2) #CroydonCrash #CoverUp 3) #LondonBusWatch—would be obvious b/c evidence already in public domain.

QED 1. Why doesn't @BBCLondonNews look into @TfL Commissioner & @MayorofLondon "Misleading Statements about Middle Door Boarding & #Covid19 Risk Reduction"? @SadiqKhan admits decision had nothing to do w science. london.gov.uk/questions/2021… HT>@KeithPrinceAM

QED 2. Why doesn't @BBCLondonNews look into "Deputy Mayor’s [@Heidi_LDN] misleading statements to @LondonAssembly on 11 September 2019" re #CroydonCrash #CoverUp? She claimed 'she looked at all documents & correspondence" Why? london.gov.uk/questions/2021… HT>@KeithPrinceAM

QED 3. Why doesn't @BBCLondonNews investigate @MayorofLondon's "Misleading Statement about Croydon Tram Safety Audits" ICYMI @SadiqKhan made public statements in complete ignorance of facts. Was he poorly briefed by @TfL executives? Why? london.gov.uk/questions/2021… HT>@KeithPrinceAM

QED 4. Why doesn't @BBCLondonNews investigate why @MayorofLondon REJECTED @LondonAssembly 4Jul19 Motion supporting @GMBSouthern #GMB19 Resolution 412 asking for Independent Review of @TfL's role during #CroydonCrash Investigations? london.gov.uk/questions/2019… HT>@KeithPrinceAM

QED 5. Why doesn't @BBCLondonNews investigate why @TfL MD Surface Transport made False Statement about outcome of TfL's so-called 'audit' of @FirstGroupplc Croydon Tram Fatigue Mgmt to TfL Safety Panel (@MLiebreich Chair) on 26Jun17? london.gov.uk/questions/2019… HT>@CarolinePidgeon

Does "Concealing or denying failings, for the sake of the organisation's public image, is dishonesty on the part of the organisation for reputational benefit & constitutes a form of institutional corruption" only apply to @metpoliceuk, @VanessaOnAir? IMO @TfL => Perfect Case.

QED 6. For years @TfL Published Victim-Blaming Narratives about pedestrians killed by its Contracted for-Profit Bus Operation before Inquests. Why didn’t @BBCLondonNews ever investigate? saferoxfordstreet.blogspot.com/2020/09/stopki…

Thankfully @KeithPrinceAM got @MayorofLondon to order @TfL to put an end to this inhumane practice, but why was it ever allowed? Who in Palestra House authorised TfL’s decision to blame the victims for their own deaths before any Inquest? london.gov.uk/questions/2020…

BTW @MayorofLondon later admitted to @KeithPrinceAM that it appears @TfL was (instinctively? automatically? unquestioningly?) re-publishing whatever its Contracted For-Profit Bus Operator sent it. london.gov.uk/questions/2020…

Does @MayorofLondon @Heidi_LDN support of @TfL outsourcing Bus Crash Investigations to Contracted Bus Operators involved in incident just another example of “Institutional Corruption”? Will @BBCLondonNews ever investigate? london.gov.uk/questions/2019… HT>@KeithPrinceAM @GMBSouthern

ICYMI in May20 former @TfL Board Director & Safety Panel Chair @MLiebreich wrote to @MichaelMarmot evidencing how TfL was "Institutionally Unsafe". IMO recent @metpoliceuk Daniel Morgan Investigation conclusion more accurate: TfL=> Institutionally Corrupt. saferoxfordstreet.blogspot.com/2020/05/stopki…
