So far £295 million has been spent on the 359,000-page planning permission for the Lower Thames Tunnel linking Tilbury with Gravesend. The Laerdal tunnel, connecting Oslo and Bergen, cost £140m to build.
Sorry just choked on my rice crispies.
So we have spent £295m on a review document. They built and had it productive for £140m.
Why don't the British get angry about farces like this and just roll over as if it was acceptable.
I get so angry about paying taxes when I hear they are being handled like this. Rather than just look at ways of getting lightly used vehicles off the road I would prefer if they really looked at waste first. Not angry enough to want them to hire Musk and reform DOGE though. It would be so interesting to create a Ministry of Ex-Ministers. Take the knowledge no doubt in many ex-government staff who know where the money is being burnt and enable them to go at it with pruning sheers. Not just on programs but possibly on the private parts of knowingly public-private money wasters. I have been employed by two US VC startups that went public on less money than that.
Back on or close to topic.
The Aero's both need a "very good warming up" before being put in for MoT.
Interestingly the Coupe got a good chunk of the options list thrown at it as the factory demo car. That included the "high capacity sports cat converters" which apparently needed to be fitted after the car was handed over to avoid registration issues. So does that mean it would be factory and should pass with normal levels? (sound and puff puff)
