An "express lane" for pedestrians who want to travel along Edinburgh's Princes Street quickly without being held back by shoppers is being mooted.If a Labour or Lib Dem councillor did that, right-wing bloggers would be banging on about the "nanny state".
Tory councillor Jason Rust, said he planned to launch a motion to councillors next month with the idea to help combat "pavement rage".

Conservative councillor calls for express lane for pedestrians
The BBC reports:
This would be the Jason Rust who has apparently emerged as front-runner to be Tory PPC in Edinburgh South West, taking on Alistair Darling. I wonder if his new-found penchant for headline-grabbing populism is connected?
