HS2

 Plaid's Hywel Williams once again spoke for many when he questioned the deputy prime minister in the Commons yesterday about the distortion in rail funding as a result of the HS2 project.  Deputy Oliver Dowden was unable to give a straight answer. Meanwhile, the project's chief executive announced his resignation in the wake of confusion as to whether there will be a central London terminus as originally planned. 

John Redwood reminded us that there was opposition to this grand projet from the Tory backbenches and not just from constituencies along the line of construction.
