If the government stopped handing out gifts of £3,000 to ever rich new electric car buyer they might be able to fund a large part of social care without tax increases. Add in all the other wasteful green nonsense and likely the whole thing could be funded.

Operation Brock on M20 has been removed after just 2 weeks because wsn't needed. That time cost £196K. Not taken out as intended though: kept in reserve & might return any time.

[Andrew Allison @andrew_allison]

Is this the most unwelcoming shop in the UK? And they are willing to discriminate against those who are medically exempt. Terrified, authoritarian, unwilling to listen to reason. Welcome to the UK. There are times when I don’t recognise my country.

[ABD Kent @ABDKent]

Kent Messenger reports that from next Monday - because of lifting of Covid restrictions - Operation Brock is being rolled out again.
Why?

[ABD Kent @ABDKent]

Government have announced a major programme of south-east road maintenance, largely pothole repairs, mainly on M20 & M23, but also the A2 near Canterbury & the viaduct section approaching Dover port.
