This woke woman, and EUSSR fanatic, needs to shut the fuck up!!.........Tell me what the point of destroying the countryside to shave a few minutes, or in some cases even add them, to a railway system that nobody can afford to use, nobody needs and nobody wants. People are getting rich from this at taxpayers' expense. Imagine the actual good that could be done with £160 000 000 000 and rising. The whole idea stinks from start to finish.
Now Theresa May says HS2 must not be scaled back one day after fellow former Conservative PM Boris Johnson declared cutting the rail project would be 'a betrayal of the North' The former PM has called for HS2 not be to scaled back by the Tory government It comes after Boris Johnson declared cutting the project would betray the north
The Silly Moo grinning like a Chesure Cat.
She added that there was also an issue for her constituents if the line does not end up terminating in Euston, in central London.
'If HS2 stops at Old Oak Common, it is going to make our railway journeys into London longer and disrupted potentially over the period that Old Oak Common's building is being done to enable it to take that end point,' she said.
'So I am arguing with Government: 'Don't stop at Old Oak Common. You need to take it into Euston because my constituents will be disadvantaged if you don't'.
Her comments come just days after Boris Johnson revealed his 'suppressed fury' at Rishi Sunak's decision to throw the future of the line into doubt.
Mr Sunak has fuelled speculation about the future of the project this week by repeatedly refusing to confirm that HS2 will be extended to Manchester, or even that the planned line from Birmingham will reach central London.
Whitehall sources confirmed that Mr Sunak is all but convinced that the soaring cost of the flagship rail scheme, which began life under the last Labour government, can no longer be justified.
Writing in the Daily Mail, Mr Johnson says the latest 'spasm of uncertainty' risks undermining the entire levelling up agenda – which was central to the Conservative Party's landslide victory in 2019 – and damaging long-term investment in the North.

Boris did quite a good article in the Mail yesterday about HS2. He compared it to the Chinese high speed rail projects which have seen 25,000 miles of railway built (and up and running) in the time that HS2 has gone precisely nowhere. The Chinese use it as an example of what's wrong with democracy. It is of course a bit unfair because the Chinese govt can just build where they like - but even so ...
There was also a good article about how the HS2 project is beset by "woke" issues. They apparently have a huge number of EDI managers (Equality, diversity and inclusion) that have to produce reports on the effects of the line to the interests of the various ethnic minorities along the route - and advise on whether workers should be allowed to have lunch in a pub, which might offend muslims. The whole ting is a licence for contractors of one type or another to print money.
It's nice to blame the govt ministers for this but I think the main blame lies with our useless Civil Service, who simply don't do their job and now don't even turn up to work.
