Barely fit for purpose and in some places just blatantly dangerous.
And things are only going to get worse if some money doesn't start being spent somewhere. WHY are some people so insistent that living in a dirty, grubby, un-modern and embarrassing country is somehow a badge of honour?? "Oh look at us! We spend so little money! We're so frugal! Look at all of our horrible, decaying mess!"
