Power Down in England


Well, I wonder if they can blame deregulation for this? Hilary Clinton, call your office!
A power cut is causing major disruption on rail and Tube services in London and the South East.

Network Rail says between 500 and 1,000 trains have been affected by the power cuts which are thought to have been caused by a problem with the National Grid.

Train company Connex has reported the power is out between London and Ashford, affecting services through London Bridge, Victoria, Ashford, New Cross and Bromley.

No trains are running in south London, the area which has been hardest hit, and Transport for London says 60% of the Tube network has been affected.

Stations and trains were evacuated as commuters using the Tube were plunged into darkness and some were stuck underground as the power went off at 1815 BST.

I mean, it can't have anything to do with restrictions on building infrastructure by the government, and other governmental interference in the marketplace. Can it?
