    Bradford is a branch line, Its forefathers had little vision, As you say unless they are joined and a through line built Bradford will always be a satellite of Leeds

    He'll be under real pressuer then! This complete bollox is prevalent, hopefully he will stick it out.

    I love this stuff :brig:, "Anatomy is not always a good guide to determining a child’s sex". Which should read, for any sane person. "Anatomy is virtually always a good guide to determining a child’s sex".

    yep, anatomy may not define gender but it would normally determine sex

    Correct me if I am wrong, but Foster Square is on an electrified line, and the interchange is not electrified, therefore it would require a whole upgrade on the interchange not just a connection between one and the other, not to mention how it would go through the City seeing as there is a court, hotel, St Georges and now Broadway all stood in the way.

    Wouldnt stop them if it was London

    Anyway Boris has removed the minister for the north and we now have a junior minister. Meaning no cabinet representation. Seems to me like he got his votes and now hes selling you all out.

    I agree one law for London another for the rest.
    The votes he gained from the Northern voters can soon be reversed, that is of course if Boris does not do as he's promised, and the Labour party sort themselves out.

    Be helpful if you were more truthful in your posts, We get you do not like this government but twisting or lying does not help your case,

    Transport Secretary Grant Shapps will be Cabinet Minister in charge of Northern Powerhouse after Jake Berry quits --- ( ie Not Sacked or removed )
    Boris Johnson has chosen Transport Secretary Grant Shapps to promote the Northern Powerhouse at CABINET LEVEL

    Grant Shapps is a minister for transport, the northern powerhouse is more than just transport. Be helpful if you could understand the issue at hand.

    Have a watch of this and ask does it matter who is the next leader, they don't sound to have moved on, same policies bar Brexit that lost them the last general election and delivered Labour the worst defeat in 80 + years.
    Andrew Neil certainly makes them squirm, Keir Starmer trying to convince Neil in the areas where immigration/free movement were major concerns after discussing it with the electorate people have agreed it was a good thing.

    The Tories have to screw up big time to lose the Labour Brexit vote, and when you hear the comments from these two, you have to wonder if you voted Labour you are wasting your vote.

    Whilst entertaining I'll be glad when the coronation is over this weekend, did you see Corbyns smug face when everybody was wishing him well at last PM's question time ? it just screamed "I ain't going nowhere"
    Covid-19 or Corbyn-20.....not sure which is worse....!!
