Take the duty off petrol, return my pension fund and I'll agree with you. Can you have a word with Mr Brown and fix it please?

Great news. Now watch the lazy gits spend forever standing about (if you're lucky) drinking tea whilst the job runs on for years. The French would have that little lot done within 6 months.

Also, once they've created a brand new d/c using every bit of knowledge known about building modern safe roads, watch that tit Edwards from the Norfolk Speed Camera Parasites start collecting tax from day 1 citing road safety issues like he did on the last stretch.

However, great news all the same...

Down here in Suffolk wwe've had a much better result.
When they straightened out the Haughly bends near stowmarket on the A14, it's pretty much finished a bit early, and (brace yourself!!!), it's meant the removal of a speed camera!

They've also admitted ballsing up the drainage and causing accidents through aquaplaning and post investigation are now saying they have got to carry out upgrade maintenance to rectify the problem . . . We wonder where our taxes go, get the fecking thing right first time !

As for the A11, the government is spending spending spending our way out of recession, it's not going to work, but it does mean these projects are getting signed . . . Believe it's going to happen once a digger turns up and starts cutting a groove . .

In some ways it's not good news as most studies prove that with the development of greater access come greater levels of crime and other elements not so attractive in the medium to long term. . .

I'm having a cynical day today having read that lot back !

Phew, I had hoped that speed camera had gone as I may, once, at some point, gone through there reasonably rapidly. I don't remember seeing one where one used to be....removal of cameras is cause for celebration!

Well technically the first one (one the way to Ipswich) is still there, but it's wrapped up in a tarpaulin and there are no road markings.

The only down side of this new bit of road is that they've shut off the access to Stowmarket from that side.
