I am afraid Mr Bigland treats HS2 as his personal crusade.
Before I first read his blog I was undecided about the route.
However his contradictory mutterings, sometimes within the same blog, made me examine the case against.
Forgetting HS2 I think it is worrying how the government is more or less handing control of our economy to what we were brought up to believe were
big bad communists out to control the world.
Now we appear to be assisting them.
