There has been much coverage in the media over Simon Burns MP choosing to take the car to work rather than the train. Mr Burns is MP for Chelmsford but also the government Rail Minister. If ever we needed proof that the rail service in this region isn't good enough then this is surely it.
Neil Skinner, Chairman of the MRUA, is featured in this Guardian article on the subject.
I am disgusted... how can he even have the slightest inkling of what us ordinary commuters face whilst he is sat in his car costing taxpayers £80,000 pa rather than use the service he is supposed to represent .. he needs to step up or step away!
