High speed rail must go to Scotland to help reach net zero, report finds independent.co.uk/news/uk/politi…
@joncstone Really ? ! Please check you concrete slab co2 production figures
@joncstone #hs2 will take 120 years to reach #NetZero and that’s on their own figures which doesn’t take into account the collapse in rail use or the expansion of 4 airports! thetimes.co.uk/article/hs2-wi…
@joncstone Out of interest, a member of the High Speed Rail Group and HS2 Strategic Challenge Panel authored the report, who commissioned it?
@joncstone @GarethDennis They can’t even get it to leeds ffs
@joncstone What a surprise. How many £bns would it cost to get high speed rail to Scotland & what trivial carbon saving would it achieve? This could never ever be a priority.
@joncstone How many more ancient woodlands would that destroy? How independent is the report?
