Boris bridge a road to nowhere says Finnie
Commenting on the Fraser of Allander Institute’s demolition of Boris Johnson’s proposed bridge between Scotland and Northern Ireland, Scottish Greens Transport Spokesperson John Finnie MSP said:
“This analysis shows how utterly ridiculous Boris Johnson’s proposed bridge really is. If there really is £20 Billion available for major infrastructure projects this could play a huge role in our efforts to tackle the climate crisis. We could renew Scotland’s entire public ferry fleet, support councils to establish local publicly owned bus services, and make much needed improvements to our rail network like redualling the Milngavie and Highland Main lines and reopening the Dunfermline to Alloa route. It’s time for this Tory government to either put up or shut up, rather than perpetually droning on about this absurd road to nowhere.”
