My thoughts too. And once its gone, its gone forever (they'd never buy it back if they found they made a mistake - it would be too expensive), and the cash raised will be gone pretty quickly too.
Then what?
As an aside, how many years did it take to build up a working infrastructure on the Thames, and how much quicker do you think it would be to dismantle it?
