Wide Load

Perhaps it wasn't too long, but once you get to Sanville Way it's crawling pace, so these wide load lorries just make it worse for everyone. as @roberta says travelling overnight would be a much better idea. Or build these caravans/chalets on site, which would provide some much needed local jobs.

Why do these wide load lorries have to keep travelling the narrow roads between Exeter and Dawlish during the morning rush hour?

Stand up: That seems a little hard to believe, perhaps there are a few cases of bad behaviour but on the whole MPs are hard working. I do think there is way too many of them though. Universal credit: I don't know much about it, but on the face of it, it seems like a good ...

There was no need to say it. The original post was about those choosing to be lazy. Nothing about taking benefits away from those in genuine need. At the end of the day, all I said was, it is good that the Government is trying to stop people abusing the system. If you don't agree then that's obviously up to you. However most will think you're just being silly. :)
