BREAKING: Last week’s trade data shows an incredibly bleak picture for the economy:

- 49% drop in global container bookings
- 64% drop in U.S. imports.
- 30% drop in U.S. exports.

πŸ‘€ those transport investment figures.

The annual and historic investment gap in transport beyond the 'Greater South East' is significant.

The spending review has to address this imbalance and deliver new investment in public transport networks across England.

From EARTHSEED: THE BOOKS OF THE LIVING
Choose your leaders with wisdom and forethought.
To be led by a coward is to be controlled
by all that the coward fears.
To be led by a fool is to be led
by the opportunists who control the fool.
To be led by a thief is to offer up your most precious treasures to be stolen.
To be led by a liar is to ask to be told lies.
To be led by a tyrant is to sell yourself and those you love into slavery.
