Water World

Some group in London is one of 24 promised money to "chart the history of the Regent's Canal" for the Mayor of London's Story of London Festival later this year. Unfortunately, the Evening Standard ("We're sorry we're so useless") manages to print a photo and caption but not a single additional word on the entire page. It really is a dire newspaper and no wonder the freesheets are wiping the floor with them. What has London done to deserve such a miserably poor newspaper?
