I did come up with the quote though, according to Wikipedia:
"Integrated transport policy
"On coming to office, Prescott pursued an integrated public
transport policy. On 6 June 1997, he said: "I will have failed if in
five years time there are not...far fewer journeys by car. It's a
tall order but I urge you to hold me to it."[12] However, by June
2002, car traffic was up by 7%. This prompted Friends of the Earth’s
Tony Bosworth to say "By its own test, Government transport policy
has failed".[13]"
But will the electorate vote NuLab back into office again? Considerng
that he made this as a *promise*, do we vote for failed politicians?
If "we" means the Hull East people in 2005, yes we do.
