On The Right Track

By 196 to 38, MPs have voted to allow Andy Sawford's Bill to proceed. Second Reading will be in the New Year.

No, this Bill itself stands little chance of becoming law. And no, merely repealing the ban on public sector bids for rail franchises is not sufficient.

But things are clearly heading in the right direction.

    1. Yes, first the unopposed motion on Thatcher's lying during the Miners' Strike, and now this.

      But that went unreported, and this will, too.

      Still.
