It's a good campaign but it really falls at the first hurdle

How on earth are we going to attract decent sized companies when our transport links are so dismal? There are countries in Eastern Europe with far superior transport links and with a plentiful, cheap and young workforce competing in the current pits of this recession. Asking folk to send in a few nice pictures of Brancaster Staithe is not really going to swing it for a growing company or one looking to relocate to reduce overheads.

Nice idealism, but the reality is we live in a county less than 100 miles from the capital that can take 3 hours to reach. Until this issue is resolved, then Norfolk will always be extremely "Normal".
