What has been kept "highly secret"? One example will do.

The entire (sorry about the tautology) input to the Comprehensive
Spending Review that they postponed until after the election.


This was the burying of bad news I was alluding to.

Note that the new transport secretary has qualified all of his
statements so far by matters financial.

Having said that, I confidently expect the new administration to do
far more than the previous administration when it comes to transport,
despite the financial difficulties, because, as the media has been
quick to point out this week, they are not all a bunch of big girl’s
blouses.
