We hope it'll encourage you to explore it for yourselves, in the #Railway200 year - & beyond!

Fascinating that framing a question in a certain way results in an answer you want??

'Bernard, do you agree we should bring back national service?'

Hold fire and review the situation post January 20. I suspect the eye of Sauron will shift its gaze away from the legal functions of local government in the North West of England.

The striking thing is how marginal the Parliament would be. 271 seats would be won by a party getting under a third of the vote. 221 seats have a lead of less than 5%, 87 are within 2%. So very small shifts under first past the post could lead to radically different outcomes

Do any politicians still listen to what 'The Sun says'?.... I suspect they don't and shouldn't, the readship even online is a shadow of its former self.

Definition of echo chamber politics. Being totally outflanked by Reform.
Most salient issues housing/health/cost of living are not address by anti-woke politics.
