There’s a bit of good news in here:

In the four years that followed (2018-21), the average gap in investment in rail and road decreased from 66% to 34%. During that time, seven countries invested more in rail than roads – Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Italy, Luxembourg and the UK – while the rest spent more on roads than rail.

But ideally we need a Wales style road building freeze across Europe. We have enough roads to get everywhere, it’s purely building for capacity now and we should be shifting that capacity to rail.

    Our government doesn’t hate immigrants, they hate all poor people equally…

    I will re-iterate it because it’s an important point: We didn’t vote them. The center-right consolidated power and undermined our multi-party system despite most votes landing on the left. They are now using this consolidated power to do whatever they want.
