IT was interesting to read that the prospective Conservative general election candidate for Wyre Forest was caught up in the problems affecting the railway network.
Perhaps the delays encountered by Mr Simpson allowed him time to realise that it was successive Tory governments that under-funded the railways and it was the Tories who produced the disastrous privatisation scheme which is largely responsible for the current problems.
If he is delayed again while travelling by train, maybe he could ponder on the consistent hypocrisy of Tories who seem to have conveniently forgotten the effects of their years of government.
