As for the crap roads well thank Mrs Thatcher for the years of
underinvestment. The current government is spending loads on
improvement but it will take toime to sort out all the problems she
created when giving the yuppies tax breaks in the "good ol 1980s!"

Don't talk bigotted crap.

Not crap the truth

Sorry, one of the biggest loads of totally untrue rubbish posted here for
months.

Margaret Thatcher was by far the most pro-road Prime Minister of recent
years and her administration approved a large number of new road projects
(completing the M40 between Oxford and Birmingham probably being the single
biggest). Unfortunately many of those were cancelled by the Major government
and some of those that remained by John Prescott.

Labour has recently begun to grudgingly acknowledge that a decent transport
system is essential for a successful economy, and has started reinstating a
few of these schemes.

But without the decisions taken under the Thatcher adminstrations, Britain's
roads would be far worse than they are now (which doesn't bear thinking
about, really).
