green in the other direction, and what space had formed gets filled with
other vehicles. Such as a normal bus, perhaps. Repeat ad infinitum.


Makes you wonder how any of the thousands of HGVs all over the country ever
make any progress doesn't it.

We were talking specifically about transport - the only thing that the
mayor has power over that people care about, remember. His championing
of the cause of one-legged lesbian nuclear-free whales is irrelevant.


Its not if he spends taxpayers money on it.
