Excellent site: Patrick Crozier's UK Transport
A decade ago, I spent about 3 years living, working, and studying in London. I had the great pleasure to make the friendships of good comrades Chris R. Tame, Tom Burroughes, Sean Gabb, and Brian Micklethwait of the Libertarian Alliance, among others. I'm not sure I had the opportunity to meet Patrick Crozier, but in the process of commenting recently on a posting in Brian's Education Blog (look soon for his Culture Blog), I found out about Patrick's superbly informative UK Transport, which I feel compelled to plug here.
UK Transport covers all aspects of transport in the UK. It is written from a libertarian perspective, in other words, that the less the State involves itself in the running, regulation or funding of roads, railways or anything else - the better.
I've always been impressed at the thoroughness and perseverance of the people of the Libertarian Alliance. Patrick's work is reflective of these traits, as well as the sheer productivity of The Movement across The Pond.
The links section on this UK Transport Extra posting alone are worth the trip. It's the most comprehensive collection of resources arguing for total defascistization* of transport I've ever seen.
* - Yes, I made that up, remembering the popular myth that Mussolini made the trains run on time.
