Been quietly watching the appointment of new transport ministers.

It's worth noting that the DfT is now headed by the most northern set of MPs I think its ever had, as a collective group. Including former Transport Select Committee chair Lilian Greenwood (who is excellent).

@garius

Just waiting for the headbangers to deride them as 'managerialist' and 'elitist'.

@garius err, that would be Lillian Greenwood, MP for Nottingham South?

Do you subscribe to the "anywhere north of Luton is The North” school of geography? 😀

@witewulf there's a reason the signs on the A1 (M) say "Peterborough and the North"

@garius it's not that I'm particularly precious about being a Midlander these days, just that I never think of it as The North since moving here from E.Yorkshire 30 years ago 😀

@witewulf the midlands is a false construct.

I blame woke.

(did i do that right?)
