    He's the one who was sent to Pedal on Parliament to read a prepared bit of propaganda.

    Yesterday's 'new (maybe) money for active travel' continues to show that the current Scittish Government doesn't have much of a clue about the Transport element of 'carbon'.

    Meanwhile this is in today's Scotsman -

    In its new report, Audit Scotland says annual increases in energy generated from renewable sources must double if they are to meet electricity targets set out by the Scottish Government.

    Maybe restricting motor vehicles and actively encouraging active bicycling will become more important...

    You've apparently forgotten about these extremely essential capital projects the government is committed to:

    - Queensferry Resilience Crossing
    - Aberdeen Western Peripheral Salmond Run
    - A9 Safety Anti-Funeral Dualling
    - M8 Engine Of Growth Widening
    - A96 Oil Industry Commuter Pipeline

    After we've done all that, there may be a few bawbees left over for:

    - Inverness Backpackers Express Train Enhancements
    - National Dog Walking and Active Strolling Network
