Is EU to blame for high speed link?
HS2 is a new high speed rail link between Birmingham and London. It has cross party support form the Liberal, Labour and Conservative parties in the House of Commons.
This HS2 project will cost £33bn , but it has little support outside of the British Parliament, and 18 local authorities along the proposed route are campaigning against it.
Why are the three major parties all supporting something so obviously against the public interest?
Only an EU directive has the power to unite the parties, against the overwhelming wishes of the rest of the country.
