Embrace independent thinkers, critics, experts in their own field

Meanwhile, below, any comment, criticism, corrections - PLEASE?!  Is this the sort of thing Zak Polanski or Corbyn would approve?!

My emphasis is on getting WMCA to be more Climate conscious and Climate active by switching their priorities away from swanky, self-indulgent, wealth-flaunting Metro, VLR and Sprint and High Speed extensions.  Instead, make the homes of the poorest to be Climate compliant.  And, for buses and railway lines to be fully used.  £2.4 billion on transport for unnecessary flash, fancy, frippery multi-modal projects must go to get the homes of the poorest to be highly energy efficient, highly insulated and solar powered.  Send the money back until HMG money is used for the right things.

The WMCA Growth Plan must reflect that but it does not.

Does that make sense to you or am I out of my mind?  My kind of thinking is totally unacceptable to TfWM/WMCA at Tram HQ.  Hence, my emails are not being delivered.  Free speech is silenced.  They don't like what I'm writing, so instead of giving me a well reasoned, proper response or, rebuttal, I get silenced!

Dan, It seems to me that the role of the cllrs is to have their say, to give their opinion and then to agree/rubber-stamp whatever the officers want. Outside on the pavement, I was urging one cllr to be more assertive, outspoken and  critical. There is never any voting, simply a have your say; a pointless exercise. An expensive talking shop.

All my emails to 16 Summer Lane are blocked, Dan. Why, my friend?!
