Secret Love

[Martin Cassini]

Now I shout it from the highest hill ... Sometimes it's difficult to contain the frustration you feel in knowing that public policy is profoundly mistaken while all around you, every day of every year, you see it abusing civilised values, as well as our time, health and safety. Health & safety isn't something I often defend, at least not the runaway regulation it has come to represent. I'm talking about roads made dangerous by the anti-social rules of the road, and the health of the nation vitiated by traffic emissions aggravated by traffic mismanagement. Today we learned that in London, in six months, air pollution has already exceeded the maximum safe level for one whole year! The cycle of oppression and waste will remain intact until we introduce reform that treats the underlying cause of our road safety and congestion problems, which would be Step 1 on the road to letting us breathe freely again.
