Re: Infrastructure.
I don't think anyone has mentioned my bugbear: pot holes.I have driven in France, Germany, the Netherlands and the US. In none of those countries have I ever seen potholes, certainly not to the extent that we have them.
Like our roads and our transport infrastructure in general, it all boils down to the lack of forward planning. Other countries saw it coming: the sudden increase in motor transport, and laid new roads to account for it. This country assumed that our Victorian road system would be adequate.

I now expect to hear from a Texan assuring me that potholes in Texas are the biggest in the world!
We only had a few minutes of a programme devoted to them
See you had a whole 30 minute programme about them tonight
