Now hear me out, but I’m just beginning to think it may have been an error to appoint a deranged, narcissistic, psychopathic, criminal, sex offender, reality TV star on the run from justice with dementia to the highest political office in the world. Twice.

Every single person going hard for AI is either a boss, a bootlicker, a Nazi, or was kicked in the head by a horse.

Can we now talk about building HS2 in full, releasing capacity on the existing rail network, getting more freight and passengers on it, and electrifying it to reducing it to reduce our dependency on fossil fuels?

It’s 950 mm gauge, rather than metre. An interesting little line which has been withering for years.

Taking the train though Northern Scandinavia in winter is dramatic. As I was told by a contact at Asea almost 40 years ago. It’s 1000 km of trees and snow. If you see snow with no trees, that’s a river.

Exactly. This is not a lot of money. And once destroyed you don’t get to rebuild it.
