They just interviewed him on the radio this morning at Clapham junction. He is going to visit all 10 problem stations today no doubt meeting the local media at each, and if everything goes to schedule should finish his journey about 10pm (he clearly has a lot of faith in the network). I am no fan of any Politician but he does seem to be one of a very few ministers in recent years that gets his hands dirty and moves things on. He was voted minister of the year last week apparently. One of the papers was suggesting at the weekend that he may stay on in a transport role even if the Governemnt changes next year.
