Boris Johnson ’s failure to come up with the cash for his much-trumpeted £3billion bus revolution should come as no surprise.
What more do you expect from a Tory leader who says one thing and does another, and lies and deceives without breaking sweat?
Broken promises are the hallmark of Johnson who is clueless about ordinary people’s lives.
The contemptuous PM’s bus cut has united Tory and Labour areas in protest.
Every day passengers reliant on public transport, particularly the young and old and the less wealthy, face the nightmare of higher fares and slashed services.
Buses are a vital public service. Until they are affordable, frequent, regular, clean and safe, communities will be isolated and poorer.
Once again Johnson fails to grasp what is wrong and care enough to fix the problem. His neglect, incompetence and phantom promises are unforgivable.
War’s our fight
A worried mum scared of dying writing family contact details on her young daughter’s back is one of the saddest images of Putin’s unprovoked invasion.
Horrific war crimes in Bucha have been revealed as Russian forces retreat. In an impassioned plea to the UN, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky warned there will be more Buchas.
Putin is an international pariah. Even allies such as China are repelled by the brutality of Russian troops and worried the world’s economy will be hit hard.
Britain must give Kyiv more weapons, tighten sanctions against Russia and welcome Ukrainian refugees. This fight is also our fight.
Rob MBE joy
Rugby League legend and fundraiser Rob Burrow collecting his MBE at Windsor Castle was a proud and fitting moment.
The dignity and determination of the ex-Leeds Rhinos star fighting Motor Neurone Disease is truly inspirational and Burrow’s honour is truly deserved.
