"AND the gaslighting continues! "
..gaslighting will be re-introduced nationwide, not just Lancashire...by the energy secretary..

Also knocker-uppers will be implemented in Andys mini manifesto..primarily for minorities, (eg: working people)..

It will be up to top M.P's to ensure her next door is knocked up..called the " Boris" initiative.

If he really believes in it then why not relocate the House of Commons and the other place to Conference centres somewhere Northern. With purpose built dormitory accommodation for MP's

The existing buildings could then be demolished, after all they are only Victorian Gothic (with the exception of Westminster Hall).

The cleared site could then be redeveloped into high rise social housing..

Whilst the Grade One listed Palace of Westminster is being restored [it is after all a national if not internal iconic building] it was proposed that the House of Lords be relocated up north. Leeds was suggested. Why not a big barn on a Yorkshire farm? Bit of a long walk though for MPs when they are summons for the State Opening of Parliament.

Maybe now we might see the duelling of A1 north of Morpeth take place something that is very much overdue despite countless discussions from previous governments and numerous fatalities over the years 5 of which in the past few weeks

Anywhere else in the country especially the South and it would have been made priority so now we have a leader who is going to help and recognise the North this long overdue and very important issue maybe resolved

It’s madness i travel the road weekly and my Dad attended many serious accidents and fatalities when he was a Traffic Cop and still to this day it’s not been duelled 😞

It’s makes you wonder how many more innocent people need to be killed or seriously injured before the Government take the necessary action

Same with the A69 Carlisle - Newcastle. Road closed yet again today due to another HGV accident. Work started, but will it be put on hold because of the Defence spending hole?

Id also add the Kielder road with all the lorries transporting timber from the forest.

The north east has always been forgotten about by the transport department.

Yep yet another dangerous road that has claimed and still claims many lives every single year and yet what is done about it 🤷🏻

It’s been a while since I was last on it mind but I do hear about how many accidents are continuing to happen

Agreed. There needs to be a decent road out of Scotland.

Well, the road from Scotland up to the border is, I think, the Scottish governments responsibility, and to be fair they’ve made a fair job of the roads to Glasgow and further north in the west. But Edinburgh southwards and onwards from the border into England urgently needs an upgrade.

Where does the North Start??

I’d say Scotch Corner

"Seriously though, moving the seat of national governance up North ( or perhaps half of it) shows a degree of contempt for those in the South West. The point of having the seat of power in London is that it is equally accessible for people in Cornwall etc. Just another stupid political gimmick

It’s about letting the North have a say which is something that is very much needed and about time "

So what about a 'say' for those south of Bristol then? The South West does not even get mentioned in the national weather forecasts.

And the North doesn’t even exist according to the weather 🤷🏻
