But produces zero evidence to back his baseless claim.

Odd thing to say in a thread discussing a Telegraph article.

Yes it will be voted on today. Your statement was incorrect:

I didn’t say ‘right wing’ I said ‘extreme rightwing’. Many, I would venture most, within the rightwing are not racists. These characters clearly are.

It was advice give with ‘the friendliest of intentions’. Anyhow, The Telegram clearly omitted salient facts that undermine their ‘hit piece’.

Brian, I have been unequivocal in my statements and provided my reasoning, I accept it’s not everyone’s cup of tea. Having demonstrated the very clear misrepresentation by The Telegraph of the events surrounding the delay in executing the A40 improvements I feel I ought, with the friendliest of intentions, suggest you might want read something less overtly biased than is The Telegraph.

Absolutely. And one those usually fixated on ‘terror’ choose to ignore.

Not a deflection Brian a statement of the actual timeline with linked reports highlighting the absurdity of the Telegraph pasting this on Labour. I’ve already given and explained my opinion of Telegraph readers, you already responded to my comments, so why Brian are you asking again?

No they have not. The vote has not yet takeN place.

So canceled Nov 29 2022 Revised plans submitted to the then Tory DoT 10 months later in September 23 Where they sit for 9 months until Labour come to power in July 2024. The Telegraph blame the 2 month old Labour Government. And they think this is the stuff their readers deserve.

The Telegraph’s misrepresentation of facts in order to blame the Labour Government is worse than it looks: The improvements to the A40 were halted by Oxfordshire County Council on November 29 2022. 1 Year 7 Months and 6 days before Labour came to power. But during a meeting yesterday (Tuesday November 29) councillors decided to halt the project as it could exceed its costs due to inflation.” https://www.oxfordmail.co.uk/news/23160536.project-improve-a40-oxfordshire-delayed/#

Sorry, it’s behind a paywall at my end. I have already demonstrated the fact the Telegraph article in the OP has omitted salient details.

As already stated in the link to a credible source I posted, the budget was insufficient. Your link is behind a paywall, which given the half truths we have already seen from the Telegraph is probably no loss to informed discussion.

Like so many extreme rightwing white supremacists, not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

Brian, I’ve already provided you a link to a news report that explains the Project was instigated by and then has been halted by Oxfordshire County Council. Not the DoT.

Who lawyers have, on numerous occasions, dug out of a whole of his own making.

And The Telegraph, in snide contempt of their readers, neglect to mention the delays are absolutely nothing to do with the Labour Government. Just so long as the readers get the ill informed message.

He makes up for it with the length of his rap-sheet.

It’s my opinion. I’m sorry you object to me holding and expressing my opinions despite having explained the basis of why I hold that opionion.

As explained, different policy, different time, different circumstances. You need to demonstrate that the Government are aware of increased deaths from the current proposal under the current circumstances

Because it’s my opinion, the basis of which I have explained. Infrastructure projects being placed on hold to address funding concerns. I guess that’s something that never happened before July 5.

I agree it was a statement made at the time by the same people who are now engaging in the same ‘rhetoric’.

Swallowing obvious attempts to blame the Government for something that is obviously a local county council problem gives cause to question if there is atrophy between he ears. The Telegraph, it would seem, has as low opinion of its readers as I, why present such nonsense unless they thought it would be swallowed whole?!

Except there wasn’t enough money.

Let’s fill the gaping hole Brian: Improvements halted due to budget constraints by Lib Dem County Council. Nothing at all to do with the Labour Government. https://www.oxfordmail.co.uk/news/23160536.project-improve-a40-oxfordshire-delayed/#
