"Preliminary works on an extension from Wednesbury to Brierley Hill, serving Dudley, are due to begin next year"

Dear James, Sam and Gary

Well done on your own victory and that of your party in England and Wales.

You can now win another great victory by stopping the destruction of the UK's very last, easily reinstated, half finished, principal mainline railway from Worcester, through our Black Country and on to Derby.  This is because there is still time to save the forgotten, unused, wasted 56 Kms between Stourbridge Jct and Burton on Trent.  This week I read:

"Preliminary works on an extension from Wednesbury to Brierley Hill, serving Dudley, are due to begin next year, whilst final activities are set to take place next year on the Wolverhampton city centre extension serving both the bus and railway station."


Please get to it - James, Sam and Gary and win the praise and glory for stopping the trams, first and then getting, asap the commuter, regional and intercity trains back on the full 120 Kms (74 miles), with Railfuture's nine stations.  See:

With best wishes

"Get Brexit done" does NOT postpone extinction.  Simply, another turn of the screw with more fossil fuel burning.  Brexit is the wrong issue that worsens the right issue - immediately cutting fossil fuel use with rationing for all.

W Mids Metro means a slower and longer journey for bus users and other road users.
It means more train overcrowding.
More clogged streets and more changes on the Worcester to Black Country to Derby principal mainline railway.

£1.5 BILLION of Metro trams for five extensions to 2026 does NOT build a more sustainable society.
Metro tram billions add to austerity, to poverty and greenhouse gases to turn planet earth into uninhabitable venus.
It is completely the wrong priority - even for transport spending!

A Johnson/Trump liaison simply builds a millionaire fools paradise for their people at the expense of the rest of us and our descendants.
