HS2 - £80bn!

Wow, that is a lot of dosh .

HS2 'could cost taxpayer £80bn'
(high-speed rail project)

Who knows what the future could hold with regard to high speed travel.

Is Elon Musk's Hyperloop just a pipe dream?

Maybe better to hang on a while before spending all that money eh?

I have been dead against this project since it was first announced, spend the money on the NHS.
