    The 100kph limits on roads designed for that speed makes sense.
    So does 600 more homes - trouble is this government has failed to produce anything like the number of homes they have promised in the past - do we trust them to do it now, when they are desperate to do anything to please?

    6,000 new houses? Sounds like their promise to build 100,000 houses. They'll wail it's to hard after they haven't built 600 in two years and drop it! Labour promises aren't worth the paper they're not writen on!

    No problem. We'd be lucky to see 600 from these grifters if they manage to win the election! :)
