00:00They're losing the funding because they haven't hit the target. No, I don't think it will
00:06probably lead to better roads. I think Bristol Council is pretty much almost bankrupt, so
00:10I don't know how they're going to afford to fill any holes if they don't have any funding.
00:16Yeah, I mean, again, a sign of a broken system.
00:22I don't think that they are particularly rich, but potholes are potholes because it means
00:27that instead of improving, repairing stuff, you know, they are going to, how to say, those
00:35guys who are just smashing into it at eleven o'clock in the evening and bomb and something
00:41is broken, money, and then it's not alone, but several of them.
00:46Still, yes and no. In some places, you see with the cars, you know, oh, what's going
00:53on? You are sitting in the car or you are in different places, you know?
