Political Thread in memory of David Reid. (R.I.P.)

[The Bedlington Terrier]

Because they wanted to keep the Labour Lefties happy. If they had cancelled HS2 the Labour MPs would have been persistently whinging because they weren't trying to improve the infrastructure --as they always do.

It was supposed to take TWENTY pfhucking minutes off a train journey from Manchester to London with a major intersection in Birmingham branching off to Leeds. Great swathes of glorious countryside were ruined, billions of pounds chucked down the drain.

This fixation with Lefties on here is getting more than tiresome. Anyone with a brain in their head and not a pfhucking sieve knew the HS2 line was a ridiculous costly fiasco that would end in tears.

Without looking back and checking the threads I distinctly recall, both sinkov and myself being amongst its widest critics, and pray tell in which universe could my old mucker be called a "Labour Lefty?"
