TaxPayers’ Alliance responds to reports of possible HS2 scale back

Responding to reports in The Sun of a possible scale back of HS2, Joe Ventre, digital campaign manager of the TaxPayers' Alliance, said:

“HS2 has gone off the rails in spectacular fashion.

“A scaling back of this project would be welcome, but taxpayers would still be left with an eye-watering bill.

“It’s time for ministers to show some backbone and pull the plug on this sorry scheme.”
