Yea I know the source is bollocks, but if they are correct, the UK councils reckon they need £10,000,000,000 (10 billion) to repair 2000 potholes across the nations road network.

Now on my crude calculations this is £5,000,000 (5 million) per pothole.

WTF costs so much to stick some tarmac over a hole in the road

Even if it was 10 million to fix 2000 potholes that still 50k per pothole. ROFL, do they fill them up with gold?

month filling all 20.000 for one million all in.
