Boris Johnson is poised to give the formal go ahead to the HS2 project on Tuesday with ministers promising an additional £5bn on buses and cycle routes to head off critics who fear the troubled high speed rail line will suck cash from other priorities.

Will far right Boris Johnson be bringing in bendy buses or the ones with the fixed windows and no ventilation ..... again?
Is a bus a train? No. I thought not
s this a way to sneak in a train... instead of fixing the trains so more people can live outside of London & work there. gonna need 100bn 50 on the north and new bridges above the motorway... its long but i calculated something that gets rid of traffic. but i should be doing
But buses are privatised. Why are taxpayers subsidising them?

Boris Johnson to plough £5bn into restoring regional bus routes after years of austerity cutsLabour says investment is ‘nowhere near enough to make the difference transport users need’ I'm sure this £5bn must not be anything to do with bus companies reoccurent donations to the Tory party. £5bn spent regulating the shoddy services and disguisting vehicles would be a wise investment in the future of public transport. splashing the cash around funding everything here and there.... that means austerity has ended by the very definition of it. but moaners will still claim otherwise as they want to use the same old obsolete arguments Anything else he’s dreamed of?

Prioritise Liverpool-Leeds rail link over HS2, says BurnhamManchester’s mayor says the Transpennine railway line is more important for northerners than HS2 The thought of northerners connecting has never been a sexy notion in Westminster. A bit like feeding rats And just forget about Sheffield in all this then? HS2 is about the corporate house builders getting government subsidies to build sub standard, over priced developments of flatlets, around commuter station locations.

Scotland will be independent in 5 years and Ireland will be united in less than 10. I can just imagine all the Home Counties Tory nimbys being up in arms at a motorway being driven through Loch Lomond national park. Feel sure N Ireland and Scotland would rather be given £10 bill each to improve their own infrastructure and services.
