i quite like the idea of an additional train keeping more people off the road network - progress surely
Yup put number one first! jobs are more important than protecting our heritage and countryside.
HS2 is all about supporting the developers who manipulate our government in their favour. HS2 is not about linking the North and South. It benefits London it isn't even to have stations in some of the rural areas it is passing through. The country would be better off putting the money into improving the current rail infra structures. And in this day and age with home working and internet connections Skype and tele conferencing who needs to get from A to B faster? It is often quicker and cheaper to fly to London and HS2 won't change that.
