Before the election a promise made by Kay Cutts and her puppet the second hand car dealer Richard Jackson was to remove the Gedling bus plug. Subsidie Junkie Bruce Laughton staked his reputation on it. It later transpired that this, like the promise to scrap the tram and provide an additional £12m of bus subsidy was undeliverable (see here for story). But never mind it won them the election.
Now the Burton Joyce Conservative voters are begining to realise just how much they were conned. Dick Huskinson writes a very clear and concise letter to the Evening Post see here.
Bruce Laughton may well find that the saying in the motor trade and Jackson's catch phrase "there's one born every minute" may not ring true when he stands for Parliament in May.

Am I the only one who thinks that 'bus plug' sounds a bit rude? ;)
