The post-election reality for Britain’s transport system | #Railnatter 308

About this episode

The episode discusses the implications of the recent UK elections on the transport system in Britain.

But what does it mean for transport in Britain? What does it mean for GBR? We'll get stuck in, alongside a bit of news too.Support #Railnatter at https://patreon.com/garethdennis.
