I don't mean the fact that we have had one day's respite from the rain, rather than things have the sense of winding down and desks are being cleared ahead of people going off on holiday.
Good examples of this are yesterday's announcement of the Housing Green Paper and today's announcement on future railway investment. I admit I haven't read either in much depth, but at first sight it looks like both are little more than rehashes of previous initiatives. But (on the Green Paper at least) I will suspend my cynicism and give it a read over the next couple of weeks to see if it will do anything to give power back to Tandridge residents to set local priorities.
