Saving energy doesn't make any money for the government. More planes=more oppertunity to tax the public.

They are building a relief road for the M4 around Newport, but they plan to charge for this new relief road while reducing the speed limit of the old but perfectly good motorway to 40 mph.

As an aside to my disgust at government and council, there are plans for 120 starter homes where the prices are much reduced for first time buyers, but they were sold out almost as soon as they went on sale. Who bought them? Family members of one of the councillors who is to have a street down there named after him.

No doubt when the homes are built they will sell off the houses at a profit, thus making the whole idea useless.
