Southern Rail should of been stripped of the franchise ages ago as they are totally NOT fit for purpose and have a contract to run the service to the required levels which they have not been doing. I would not even let them run my model railway.

I used to travel on the Overground from Forest Hill and Highbury daily up to 2019 and it used to be packed then until you got to Canada Water and after would be half empty to it terminus. One day there was a major delay and was going to be late for work and walked back home and used my car and got to work on time and since them started to use my car has I could not depend on public transport to run on time.

Extending the Overground to London Bridge would probably take some pressure of the existing line but extend it to East Croydon.

Were has our so called MP Ellie Reeve been hiding?, she is suppose to be fighting an answering questions for her constituency instead of just sitting back and excepting her overinflated salary. Also our three 'missing' councillors when Southern cut the service to half hourly and severed the East Croydon link they don't seen to care a flying fig about their residents who voted them in to represent them. I am a Labour supporter but not these bunch of clowns.
