Philip Hammond has to be the most know-nothing Transport Secretary since - well, since Nicholas Ridley. And I can assure you there have been some close contenders.
Regarding the snow plan, it is apparent from posts here and elsewhere that operations have been very much on the basis of making-it-up-as-we-are-going-along. Regarding Mathews' statement that they didn't crack on with snow clearance straight away because they thought there might be a bit more to come, words fail me - as they will fail anyone else who has been professionally involved in snow clearance. I guess these people have spent so long focused only on cost reduction they cannot see anything else.
