Deja vu 2013 The NAO didn't actually call HS2 a turkey. It prefers phrases like "the strategic case should be better developed at this stage". But, if a company were proposing a project with the economics of HS2, the shareholders would be in uproar. theguardian.com/business/nils-…
Deja vu 2013 Dear govt, HS2 is an economic turkey. Every time the numbers are updated/corrected, the cost/benefit advantage becomes smaller. Some of the data in your model is 10yrs out of date. & the claim that the N-S divide would be closed is unproven theguardian.com/business/nils-…
THIS - Blair, the war criminal, the PM who lied that Horizon had no flaws, the PM who ignored the Post Office SPMs, the victims of the Blood Scandal, who was in power when Dr David Kelly met an untimely end. Still pulling the strings despite a clear vote. Someone stop him please.

Lest we forget what an omnishambles sh1tshow of a project HS2 is. "land purchases between London and Birmingham were underestimated by a factor of five" "the current management team has made HS2 unaffordable" "HS2 Ltd repeatedly deceived Parliament and the taxpayer"
Post Office Latest Findings. From the latest Private Eye, out now.
Road users = tax cash cows 😡 Direct & indirect road taxation = £50bn Road spending in 2022-23 = £11.1bn Now they are considering road pricing per mile driven, when the whole country has viable public transport, then they can consider it - until then they can sod off!
Rail spending more than double road spending 2022-23 £26bn (59%) spent on 11,500 miles of rail only £11bn (26%) spent on 255,000 miles of road How can it be with all this rail spending, we still have some of the worst services & highest ticket prices in EU?
@IanEmeryBFG @RailwayQueen That one drives me nuts - Avanti West Coast trains between London and Birmingham with 5+ 1st class & 3 standard carriages. Reason for HS2 - lack of capacity - really 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️?
Home Office refuse to release figures as to how many deportation orders are issued against failed asylum seekers. Apparently they don't keep such records ! Tells us all we need to know about the Home Office. Hopeless. Useless. Hapless. Sack the lot and start again.
Paula Vennells has been stripped of her CBE by King Charles. But she has kept her £3m bonuses, paid for of course by the tax payer who still own the Post Office. RT if it's money we want back, not CBE's.
Scotland spent 3 years considering the laws on hate crimes before the Bill was introduced in 2020. 4 more years, after being voted into law and police training to deal with complaints, it came into force. It took @jk_rowling less than 24 hours to demonstrate why it is…

I’ve worked on HS2 and I know it’s probably a drop in the ocean but they literally employ people to stand about all year round, like literally they do nothing but stand in the same spot all year🤣

Fujitsu are in huge financial trouble over the Post Office scandal. It is not just about their Horizon system - their witness Gareth Jenkins provided the dodgy evidence about it being ‘robust’. He, and therefore vicariously his employers, are responsible for these huge losses.

@carolvorders Many were 'Street' wise, he got a big knock due to the regional devastation caused principally by the Tory HS2 diktat. Over 500 gagging orders still in place, and injunctions galore. To many, it makes the Post Office Scandal look like a walk in the park.
If Fujitsu thinks £200m for Post Office scandal is enough, they are deluded They must pay in full, not British taxpayer They must be told no more contracts at all, nor extensions until they agree They lied, they concealed, they deceived us all. Pay up! thetimes.co.uk/article/3c5675…
Can this be right? That the Post Office *successfully* applied to a court that the critical Second Sight report needn’t be disclosed to a defendant, on grounds of public interest immunity?

@nigelmaclennan The Post Office scandal has shone a 1000watt light on the toxicity of some of the country’s biggest organisations. From bailed out banks Lloyd’s & NatWest to the FCA & FOS. Add in the @sra_solicitors , @ICOnews & the judiciary system for a recipe of disaster for victims.

@janineastle @RebeccaHindle_C @AndyBurnhamGM @BeeNetwork Can you back up those figures please with something factual? That would be good to see! What has happened with HS2 is simply common sense, it wasn’t widely supported and it wouldn’t benefit enough people, so why do it? That’s simple common sense!
@boudrxecoeu @dorfman_p #HS2? The train that needs a nuclear reactor to power it? #HS2 is the wrong tool for the wrong job. Destructive, wasteful, expensive; a scam and a fraud, building for a market that won't exist and a future that won't happen.

Every time I read something new about the Post Office scandal, it sickens me all over again. bbc.co.uk/news/uk-688571…
@DavidDeutschOxf Indeed, the deep-rooted assumption of the Post Office's importance (and infallibility) are remnants of it's venerate history that served to enable the scandal by blinding those who would have held any other organisation accountable much sooner and more rigourously.
@MastermanDavies @pixeltrix From at least 2013 onwards, Post Office lawyers were secretly using ‘Public Interest Immunity Certificates’ - possibly signed by a Minister - to prevent disclosure of Second Sight reports that would have exonerated victims of the Horizon scandal. They weren’t following the rules.
