To briefly mention HS2....
I have sympathy for the proponents of HS2. Some people say why can't we have a high speed rail network like they have on the Continent, and then object to us building one.
I remember the row about the M25. When it was finally built, people then complained that there weren't any service stations/rest areas - what, on the same green belt you didn't want built on in the first place?
This deserves another thread.
