    Shows what kind of person Phillip Hammond is, if he thinks he can just buy whatever he wants, given a large enough sum.

    From the article,

    "When [Hammond] was first put in charge of transport he asked his officials why cycling was in his Department."

    He doesn't even view cycling as a form of transport?

    "He doesn't even view cycling as a form of transport?"

    Largely same for SG and Transport Scotland for most of period of Scottish Parliament (and previously).

    Humza Yousaf has been making right noises about segregated cycle paths, but is now pre-occupied with trains on the wrong lines (and party political manoeuvrings to get him sacked).

    Wouldn't the cash just go to the undertakers who have to bury the people he wants dead?
