Fixing potholes is now costing the nation £1 billion/month. Which is the amount of money DfID blows on overseas aid – which gives us an excellent opportunity to do something useful for Britain.
We should close down DfID for a year for a complete review of everything it is doing to ensure that the British taxpayer is getting Value For Money; and use the pause to create pothole-free roads here; with the proviso that any repairs which do not last a reasonable length of time have to be redone at the expense of those who ‘fixed’ them in the first place.
