		<description><![CDATA[In July, London Cycling Campaign (LCC) members voted overwhelmingly (58.4%) for &#8216;Go Dutch&#8216; to be our single-issue demand for the 2012 Mayoral elections. Our chosen strapline is &#8216;clear space for cycling on main roads&#8217; &#8211; which has attracted some negative comment from those who consider it ambiguous or dilatory in some way.

		<description><![CDATA[Blackfriars bridge is a watershed. Despite the hositle environment, there are more bicycles on it in rush hour than any other form of transport and there&#8217;s a major opportunity to improve conditions as part of the Crossrail work in the area.
