I know all the Communists of the North that frequent here will deny
it.

But, this government is turning out to be all our Xmas and New Years
combined as far as the railways are concerned.

Such relief, after the last lot, who were so determined to file away
stuff like this in the cabinet marked 'to be forgotten for a very long
time'.

The boys are back in town.


I do think that you are wrong in saying that the last lot would have done
nothing about it.

They would have had another public enquiry and invited all stakeholders to
put their cases to it (complete with the usual lawyers, etc).

Few million down the drain and nothing to show for it as usual.

And we aren't all communists up here either! It is good to see a government
that is approving projects rather than going through the motions.
