Dear Cllr John - and for Richard Parker who is also responsible as the very likely next metro Mayor of the CA.
Congratulations on your elevation to Leader. You are now responsible for W Midlands transport and I would urge you to do as I am suggesting, below. Please will you respond? Please give your opinion.
This matter over transport misspending and incompetence has been disastrous for decades and is completely the wrong way to go. I would like an urgent phone or face to face meeting, please John.
The biggest ever UK finance/transport scandal is all evidenced here, John:
Many thanks for sensible, responsible action at long last.

Dear Tony (my barrister brother in law)
I am asking you that you please arrange, at my expense (up to £10,000 maximum), today to ensure by injunction:
That the first item on the agenda at Friday's WMCA Board meeting on 9 June 2023 be this resolution to be debated and voted on:
In the light of the WMCA climate emergency and ecological/economic pressures,
- This WMCA Board authorises an immediate halt on all expenditure on new immoral Metro light rail (LR), together with very light rail (VLR) and ultra light rail (ULR like Stourbridge Shuttle) extensions.
- This means expenditure ends on anymore work on Wednesbury to Brierley Hill Extension Phase 2 (LR) and Coventry work on VLR.
- This Board recommends a halt, immediately, all expenditure and work on extending High Scam 2 beyond Birmingham, ie towards Crewe (Phase 2a) and NE to East Midlands Parkway (HS2 East).
- This Board authorises all WMCA staff working on Sprint, LR, VLR and ULR extensions be rapidly retrained and redeployed into addressing the climate emergency by putting a rocket under the present lethargic work on retrofitting to ensure every building in the WMCA region is effectively insulated with minimum fire risk and maximum solar power.
- This Board authorises that the major WMCA transport budget wasted on replacing perfectly good buses and trains with trams, be relegated in importance and diverted into retrofitting and PV solar installation having the major slice of the WMCA financial pie.
