Labour Has Misread Support for an Expensive Bike Bridge

Labour reckons they know best in many areas, most notably in pandering to the whims of the lycra-wearing, road maggot brigade. They’ve decided to pour millions of dollars into a bike bridge and somehow believe the public will not only support it and them but also be willing
