Wrong again Joe,,,,
. All lanes will stay at 70mph. Read the highway code (he won't)
Ahh I do hope your caught sooner than later Joe. The cops now take a dim view of these auld middle lane hoggers.

Not at 70mph they don't. They do tailgaters and speeders though - so watch oot matey boy.
i personally think 80 is a good idea
providing your reactions are 20% faster than at 70
you should have to have been driving for 3 years to do 80 with year 1+2 restricted to 60 year 3 to 70
penalties should be quite harsh for exceeding the speed limit by more than 15mph with a 10mph reduction for a year for every offence on top off a fine and if your caught more than twice you are not allowed on the motorway till the third offense expires
because the third offence would reduce your speed to 50mph
in the case off a new driver [1-3 years] speeding once in year 1+2 will mean no motorway driving
and twice in year 3

Hence the old saying about rules being 'for the guidance of wise men, and the obeyance of fools'.
The fools should stop rushing in then. 
Have you ever seen a highway code Joe? Or are they not deemed necessary in the Middle East?
The speed limit for trucks on a motorway is 60mph.
