Why is it only in this country we have insufficient roads? Could it be that we have too many people? Or is it that we need more tax to provide more money to hide the impending bankruptcy of our adle brained "government".

That's because they just waste the money on Jollies, Pensions, larges cars and inappropriate expenses etc. for themselves and immigrants and other undeserving causes instead of Roads, Schools, NHS and other essential services.

There is nothing more to add, other than the fact that comrade Gordon is as stupid as his boss, and they just want more to waste. They want to force us onto practically non existent public transport.

The thing that is becoming more worrying all the time is the fact that these politicians (all three major parties) have demonstrated that they are totally incapable of controlling the expenditure of their own party finances, and yet, despite being in a position where, if they were running a business, they would have been declared bankrupt and unfit to continue in business, they are allowed to continue pouring OUR money down the drain, and are, at the same time, plotting to use OUR money to finance their future sham of party political "democratic electioneering".

There must be some way to put a stop to it all. The sleaze and underhand dealing is increasing exponentially.

I think this is just another smoke screen. Another fabrication, like most of the politicians scare tactics, to justify "the cure all" tax. They know the inefficiencies and ineffectiveness of public transport. This is shown by their use of private transport.

Of course the y do, but they can always claim their travelling expenses, and use the most expensive way to get there. Two Jags for example. Or fly to Paris for a hairdo for another example.
