I hear you but look who the country voted for when the Tories were in power and look at the rhetoric now. I’m afraid that’s not a handful of bigots anymore. 😩

I was watching BBC Breakfast this morning and was being served a small boats story three times within 30 minutes.

Our train tickets are essentially part funding their transport infra. You couldn’t make it up.

I live near the misnomer that is the ‘Midland Mainline’. 2 tracks, recently partly electrified. It’s 2025 for crying out line. If this is a main line, what does a minor one look like? Good grief it’s embarrassing but at least tickets are cheap. No, wait…
