Transport blues
You have to admit that this is a bit strange. A meeting to discuss one of the Welsh Assembly Government’s flagship transport policies was held in England. The Western Mail tells us that council representatives and bus operators from all over Wales travelled to Shrewsbury yesterday for a discussion about the concessionary fare scheme for pensioners.
As the paper's source says: “It is really an admission of defeat when a meeting about transport in Wales has to be held in England, supposedly because it is the easiest place for people from North Wales and South Wales to come together.” He has a point.
