Dear Mike - and Opposition Leader, Sean
I know I am in a very small minority in pointing this out. However, do I have a point?
All you politicians are fully in support of destroying the UK's very last and, one of only two, north-south mainline railways between Brum city centre and the Welsh coast. This is the principal, Derby to Devon via Dudley and Worcester Railway. This destruction on 16 Kms is costing over half a billion pounds (for light rail, very light rail and, ultra-light rail on this major, heavy rail route!).
At the same time, you are all united in wanting HS2 to give a very small minority of people the choice of either train or plane when travelling between the Big Four, English cities and, two of their airports. Some of the trains may stop at Crewe and Toton but nowhere else because it goes so fast!! This is costing us all over £100 billion in both cost and, in fast-rising, deadly greenhouse gases to bring horror and catastrophe, we are told.
Please give me your rebuttal, your reasons for why I am wrong and you are right.
Best wishes
Tim
