[Blackpool Are Back!]

Chinese say they can build the lot from North to South in 5 years instead of the estimated 20 years and for a lot less than £106bn.

Bring it on

They would have to bring in 100,000+ of their railway construction workers from China to achieve that target. That would go down well with Brexiteers.

I don’t think they have property rights or regulations in China or lobbying groups to deal with

No thanks... waste of money at any cost.

HS2 completed 15 years quicker at a much lower price.
What's not to like?

Could they bring a few more over and build 40 hospitals.
