This is so impressive.

I appreciate this was a cornerstone of Kim's campaign, but this will cost billions to deliver, at the same time stretching an already failing Metro network - I'd love it if the money was spent on overhauling the region's bus services, connecting more towns and villages to key services and amenities. How do we do this? Bringing the bus services back into public control, invest in cleaner, greener buses, add more services, restore old, much-loved and well-used routes that link areas such as the coalfields to vital locations such as hospitals and places of work. The infrastructural work of laying new tracks in areas that haven't had a railway line for years, and have now been claimed by those who walk, or use the old lines as cycle paths - it's just not worth it.

This can only be good for the prosperity of the region.

The Adventures of Driving West As CEO of ERNA Sands, I’ve learned that some of the best business insights come from hitting the road. Driving west from Texas on a sales trip offers a unique perspective—wide open spaces, changing landscapes, and the opportunity to meet people who shape sand manufacturing industries across the region. The long hours behind the wheel aren’t always easy, but they’re worth it. Every stop is a chance to connect with contractors, farmers, and partners who rely on us for materials like chip seal rock, concrete sand, or agricultural gypsum. These conversations build relationships that no email can replicate. What’s most inspiring is hearing firsthand about the challenges and successes of those we serve. Each person I meet brings fresh ideas and a renewed sense of purpose to what we do at ERNA Sands. For those who’ve done their share of road trips: What’s the best lesson you’ve learned on the road? Here’s to the open highway, meaningful conversations, and partnerships that grow stronger with every visit. Onward and upward, my friends!
