Since 2010 we've been trying our best to get the FACTS out there, even to those who won't listen.
And now, those facts can't be ignored. The HS2 fanatics have gone silent. Why? Because REALITY has hit them

The quote from
@AndyBurnhamGM
would make sense IF he wasn't lobbying with those who wasted the money to bring phase 2 #HS2 back
"The handling of HS2 should be like a morality tale in Whitehall. This was the worst example of utter waste of public money”

We've said this for years!!
"... what went wrong for HS2 and how for around twice the original budget we’re getting half the line that was planned.
One starting place is the name itself - High Speed 2.
... was it ever wise to build a super-fast one?"

"Pause HS2 land sale, says government big projects adviser"
We need to keep a close eye on who acquires any land from such a sale.

"Money is not infinite" Tories say re HS2.
Let's not forget Stanley Johnson was only person in his road able to sell his London house to govt using HS2 scheme
Paid £2.2m 2007, he sold at £4.4m 2016
All other neighbours were apparently refused an offer 🤔
Reference: newspaper reports in 2017

HS2 FAST SELL OFF OF LAND
Sir John Armitt, Chair of National Infrastructure Commission says
"It's a mistake....the land should be kept for at least two or three years...not write it off today."
So why is it being sold so fast by the Tories?
And to whom? https://t.co/boAEY4Q38W
@HS2__FACTS You also claim “HS2 may never reach Manchester”. This is false. Even with only Phase 1 built, HS2 trains will serve Manchester. Phase 2a is also already approved, and Phase 2b is now included with NPR, and if that’s cancelled, it’s political suicide.
We all knew it. Anyone with half a brain knows that the "Northern Powerhouse" is and always was a total scam.
Sunak has merely confirmed it. https://t.co/2zOBZYv1g9
