POLL What should London’s East/West primary rapid transit corridor be?

0 Upvotes

There are proposals for a North/South London Spine Line and a lot of people are already thinking forward: what should London’s primary East/West rapid transit corridor be?

We can only have one primary East/West line, and once built it has a level of permanence for future generations to rely on.

Municipal Elections 2026 Morgan or Stevenson?

0 Upvotes

It’s a pretty obvious split between the two on this election, except for the other votes (which may add up) but I don’t expect to come off on-top.

I’m completely on the fence. I want north & west BRT, but I also want someone to at least address the open drug use and homelessness problem we’re facing in London. Like seriously, something needs to be done…

I’m a weird redditor. I support BRT, but I also seriously wish downtown & OEV could live up to the potential it was from the 70’s to early 2000’s. Even when I moved to London in 2014, Downtown had a completely different vibe than it does today. Coming from a smaller town, I genuinely enjoyed walking downtown London and also thought Dundas & Richmond had a pretty cool vibe. Don’t get me wrong, there was homeless people, but it gave me “mini Toronto” vibes, which was super cool as a young person. Many longer-time locals have told me I caught the very tail end of what downtown London used to be.

What do you think? Try to be impartial. I’m fully aware Reddit leans on the centre-left side of things. I would consider myself a swing vote for Monday’s election.

Going there on Thursday for a special celebration. Budgeting about $500 for 2. Is this doable for two people? I have tried to find the drink/wine list online, but nothing. Im curious if a bottle of wine will throw me over budget.

For the mayoral race? I have only seen the poll that poses Tariq Khan against each of the other candidates. Are there legitimate reliable polls?

Municipal Elections 2026 Is it a race between Morgan and Stevenson?

85 Upvotes

(Please don’t rip me to shreds, it’s my first time being able to vote in a mayoral election)

I would much prefer to vote for a more left leaning candidate than Josh Morgan but DO NOT want to risk Susan Stevenson being elected.

I don’t have a lot of context on history and popularity of these candidates, but a left split vote can cost and has costed big time other elections.

It also seems so strangely difficult to clearly find candidates views and specific strategies?

Would appreciate some guidance on how this kind of this may go!

discussion / opinion JH supermarket, what are you thoughts on it?

48 Upvotes

To those that have visited the new Asian supermarket that opened on Oct 23, what are your thoughts?

To me the prices are expensive compared to the other Asian stores, so I don't think I would be going to it and the location is really inconvenient, it was so annoying trying to enter and exit, it took like 15 minutes just trying to get out because of the traffic.

ISO piercer recs

I’ve had some botched piercings before and I’d like to make sure I go to someone who has a lengthy history of not leaving their clients with crooked holes 🥰

I live closer to St Marys so I’d take out of town or Stratford recs as well.

ps. I know it’s not that serious but in the city I grew up in, we had 10 piercers but I learned there was only 1 you go to for quality work (and it wasn’t the one I saw lmfao)
