        How the hell can it cost £60m to plan a bridge? I could have done a drawing of a bridge with a few trees on it for about £10

        Instead of a garden bridge, why not build some affordable homes for the lowest paid workers in London? Much better use of public money.

        Hopefully @SadiqKhan will put this vanity project out of its misery and kill it quickly. @BorisJohnson should never have let it get so far.

        How can we even be discussing a 'garden bridge'- the cost? When NHS, emergency services,education, social services all strapped for cash!!😡😡

        What a ridiculous waste of time, money & effort - just the same mindset as with HS2 - Vanity projects should not be allowed

        Complete waste of money. Garden Bridge is not required. Bridges and tunnels downstream are required. Let's hope it's never built.

        You wonder how much has been spent on consultants, crony non jobs and payments to all and sundry in the Luvvieland that is London.

        Think of all the money they could have spent outside of London instead of on this capital vanity project

        I could have built the bridge for less than £60B. How can it cost that much just to plan it? This Garden Bridge smells - and not of roses.

        London needs a bridge/tunnel between Blackwall and QE2, rather than another London mayor vanity project! #GardenBridge

        A #GardenBridge between the Greenwich Peninsular & Blackwall (or even better Isle of Dogs) wouldgenuinely be a good idea

        Or just a bridge and develop genuinely public parkland nearby?
