Swansea's not that bad, surely?
It was when I went there.

In Scotland SNP got the most seats 47, Labour got 46. The Lib Dems have said they will refuse to join the SNP on the independance vote.

It'll be interesting to see 1) If they do have an independence vote 2) when, a few months, a year?

I don't know what it is with governments (this one and the previous) and train lines. London is perhaps the most luckiest in the UK with regards to having an extensive British Rail, London Underground & Docklands Light Rail Network, although even certain areas of London have lost British Rail se...
