Closure of bus lanes in Liverpool

RE: Closure of bus lanes in Liverpool.
I don't like the sound of these 'directly elected mayors', as we can see with Boris Johnson they seem to keep meddling into bus transportation and I am sure the indirectly elected mayors never had such powers. Surely Merseytravel is meant to deal with stuff like bus lanes?

This chap is probably looking for cheap votes as he knows most car users will like the sound of this, could you imagine what the reaction would have been like if a Tory suggested this? In reality ensuring bus lanes are in the right locations makes it better for both modes of transport to use the roads efficiently.
