It's just been on the news that the Humber Bridge tolls could be scrapped if the Government agree to wipe out the debt on the bridge - good, they should have done that years ago. Why are we still paying interest on such a big debt - it must have been astronomical interest, as the tolls are the highest in the country and we still owe more than the bridge cost to build. Someone obviously got their sums wrong.
So anyhow it occurs to me, if I don't pay my mortgage my house gets repossesed right? Why don't the Humber Bridge Board just stop paying the money, then the government will have to repossess it, and it becomes their problem? See what they do with a second hand bridge? I doubt they'll make a profit from it, they couldn;t make a profit selling apples.
