It was particularly generous of the Prime Minister to illustrate the insanity of it all - by driving up the bus lane in his own chauffeured Jaguar. What a crazy idea - a bus lane in the fast lane of a motorway. Just look at their transport policies. Read their White Paper. No sign of the private money they promised for the Tube.
Petrol prices the highest in Europe and going higher.
And a long list of cancelled bypasses. John Prescott's idea of a good transport system is one where most of us are priced or forced off the road - leaving them free for New Labour's cronies. Indeed their policy of trying to tax the motorist off the road is very New Labour. If you are rich you can go by car, if you are poor you can't go at all. If you live in a city, there may be a bus or a train.
