If it is 13 years late by your reckoning it was 1994 when it ought to

The previous study that made as far as a Bill were presented in 1991
to a Tory gov finally rejected in 1994 by a Tory gov.

How do you think now then ?


Well therein lies the difference

Tories said we're not doing it and doing it they did not.

New Labour said we are doing it and doing it they did not.

The difference we now call spin.


Indeed... you can't bore a tunnel without spin.
