There’s a bit of good news in here:
In the four years that followed (2018-21), the average gap in investment in rail and road decreased from 66% to 34%. During that time, seven countries invested more in rail than roads – Austria, Belgium, Denmark, France, Italy, Luxembourg and the UK – while the rest spent more on roads than rail.
But ideally we need a Wales style road building freeze across Europe. We have enough roads to get everywhere, it’s purely building for capacity now and we should be shifting that capacity to rail.
Vote for right wingers and this is what you get.
The world is not Just, and voting doesn’t achieve anything except what serves Capital.
If we keep voting for corrupt, money- and power-hungry politicians, then yes, they will only serve capital. Garbage in, garbage out.
Luckily, it’s not as bad as the rest of world, but nothing’s perfect.
Assholes never miss an opportunity to vote. Failure to vote means willingly allowing assholes to win elections. Failure to vote is equivalent to saying “this is all fine and I don’t mind whichever way things turn out, better, worse, worse even, or worst”.
Amen ! I don’t understand how most people still believe that voting will make things better, especially voting for right-wing parties

Car companies and downstream suppliers are also quite a big part of the EU economy. There are significant lobbying efforts regardless.
