How can the government on one hand say that the "BAD" weather (snow) has caused the 0.5% reduction in the economy, and still insist that there is no need for (significant) investment in snow clearing equipment as snow "has little overall effect on the UK economy" ?
A 0.5% reduction in the economy! how many snow plows and gritters and road salt etc would that buy?
Any convenient excuse!
Plus how are the budgets for winter road treatment being affected by the cuts? If they cant cope now, how will they cope with less money and potentially a worse winter next year?
