@zip The biggest thing I notice?
Potholes and surface repair on motorways.
Portugal: If there's a problem, someone comes out overnight, cones off a section of road, and fixes it.
UK: 50mph speed limit for 18 months whilst government spaffs money to private contractors who don't actually fix the damned thing for 18 months, but their CEO went to Oriel with the transport minister, or some shit.
