Rayvin 4964 Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 (edited) Are they planning to extend it to the West End or is it just refurbing? Â EDIT - it's a refurb. Nice, but I would rather the transport links were expanded. Would be better for the whole city. Edited November 23, 2017 by Rayvin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex 30432 Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 You need the new rolling stock otherwise extending it would be pointless but I agree and also think it should go to places like Cramlington and other parts of North Tyneside. It's good (although a bit ropey at times, which this should hopefully sort out) if you happen to be lucky enough to live near a station but there's far too many places not sevred by it imo.

Howmanheyman 26877 Posted November 23, 2017 Share Posted November 23, 2017 'Sure there's a bit of homelessness and childhood poverty being on the rise, you can't crack a recession without breaking an egg after all, but when some kind of cracking deal gets done and the willies hang limp at the brexit talks, then you'll see these record number of jobs combined with new global business outside of Europe and also with Europe, they won't want to lose us, and everyone will just calm down and get on with things as normal, business as usual, same old tories, sorting out labour's mess.'

Renton 17799 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 (edited) So, if current trends are continued regarding productivity (admittedly quite an assumption), national debt will be back to 2008 levels by 2060!  I'll very likely be dead by then. Well done CT and the Tories. Edited November 24, 2017 by Renton Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 17799 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 It's a long time ago now, but remember immediately after the crash, Brown had the economy growing well in all sectors before Osbourne choked recovery with austerity. It took until around 2014 until we got another bounce, but that mysteriously went flat half way through 2016 for some unknown reason.  The scary thing is the OBR forecast has not factored in the effects of a hard Brexit, which may hit us for up to 10% of our GDP. It may well be their forecast is extremely optimistic. Time to start stocking up on tinned beans tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayvin 4964 Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 I'm planning to leave the country by next summer. Have thought about it long enough now and have set everything in motion. Brexit may be a great success but I don't think I'm going to risk finding out first hand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
