HS2 rail link a waste of £50bn
How on earth is this claimed saving justified and a boon to the UK economy qualified in this day and age of mobile telephones, emails, wi-fi, computer links and satellite communication?
Never mind the needless desecration of acres of outstanding beautiful countryside with the consequential adverse impact on wildlife and farming communities. How many folk are to be given their “marching orders” from their homes, some of which has housed folk for generations?

Now that would be a boon to the UK economy, and it is not rocket science to perceive this sensible choice.
Therefore let us hope that common sense will prevail and HS2 will be scrapped.
