HS2 Corruption

Please support this petition, I and my friends know how long it takes to get ANY compensation out of HS2 Ltd, never mind a fair deal.

While HS2 has been a disaster for taxpayers, the biggest victims are residents along the route. Many have had their homes stolen by the government and many more have faced years of severe disruption, often without compensation. #HS2 https://t.co/TOqo7O1tay

*Note: it was Labour Transport Secretary Lord Adonis who mandated the speed of #HS2 should be the fastest in the world.

Transport Sec finally admits #HS2 is a vanity project! She says "it was a massively over-spec'd folly with the prospect of the fastest train anywhere in the world tickling the fancy of Conservative* ministers"

Can confirm, every review of #HS2 results in increased costs, reduced scope or delays to projects. Today's announcement has all three. #stopHS2

"for too long this project has been about speed and not capacity" #HS2 #stophs2

Watching Heidi Alexander in Parliament on #HS2, costs have gone up in part because of inflation. #stophs2

[Stop HS2 @stophs2]

Another MP raises issues of #HS2 taking land and not releasing it.

[Stop HS2 @stophs2]

Alexander adds a load of costs to cancelation of #HS2 - smacks of the costs of cancelling HS2 being added to the benefits a few years ago to argue it should continue.

#HS2 'homework' checked by experts says Alexander.
