Councils To Repair Pot Holes.

[nicebloke1]

More good news from government. KS said councils can get on with repairing potholes, giving 1.6 billion to do so. Happy days.

This shambles of a Labour Government could enact a King Herod policy and nicebloke1 would say they're doing a great job. He is utterly, wilfully, blind to their many many failings.

Should've done so when the weather was improving.

 

Hopefully better late than never, but hope any new repairs aren't ruined by the coming rain, snow, frost, that I've heard can be experienced this time of year.

"Asylum seekers? Can we stick to potholes thanks."

No we can't.

You introduced the idea that the government abandoned roadbuilding projects so as to fix the roads that we've already got.

That is not the case. They said (in so many words) that those projects had to be scrapped because there is not enough money to undertake them. They had other things on which they choose to lavish their limited spending.

I simply highlighted one of those things. I can provide plenty of others if you wish.

I simply highlighted one of those things Boris did once in a political debate, he was then part of government. I was told it wasn't about Boris??? The rules, if there are any change depending on who's posting <:0)

A much bigger figure of £8.3B was promised by the Conservatives in 2023. I'm not sure if it's just more or less the same pot that keeps being announced. 

I hope it's more likely to happen than the announcement of plans for say 1.5 million homes.

I'll wait until we see results. Announcements, especially those reannouncing old pledges as new, mean nothing if the outcomes are not delivered.

They need to fix the roads as they'll be used more when the trains go on strike again

Some councils are busy not addressing other stuff to bother about potholes.
