Having just commuted via Canada Water and Jubilee line, i can confirm that the proposed decrease in rush hour trains to London Bridge would be a bad idea. During the current strike, there are additional Overground trains running to compensate. So far these have been overcrowded, and the interchange at Canada Water is terrible, people can barely fit on the platforms. In fact, the Westbound jubilee queue this morning stretched across to the Eastbound platform, and it was severely overcrowded. The Southbound overground platform in the evening rush hour is also majorly rammed. I can't see how forcing commuters through one small station instead of having the choice to go to L Bridge can be considered a sensible plan.
