Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander found herself in the hot seat on Good Morning Britain, as presenters Richard Madeley and Susanna Reid gave her a tough time over two issues hitting Brits hard – the country’s crumbling roads and the recent chaos at Heathrow Airport.
Appearing on Monday’s show, the 49-year-old Labour MP was there to talk about the government’s £1.6 billion pledge to fix potholes – a problem that drivers across the UK know all too well. With local councils set to get their slice of the funding from April, the Department for Transport reckons it’ll be enough to fill around seven million potholes a year, reported the Express.
