Isabel Oakeshott Reveals Andy Burnham And Andy Street ’Furious’ At Alleged Axing Of HS2 Leg

TalkTV’s international editor Isabel Oakeshott reveals Andy Burnham and Andy Street are “furious” that Rishi Sunak is poised to axe a leg of the “ruinously expensive” HS2 project. There have been rumours for the past few weeks that the high-speed rail line between Birmingham and Manchester was going to be axed by the prime minister and chancellor due to soaring costs. A Downing Street spokesperson said: “These reports are incorrect. No final decisions have been taken on Phase 2 of HS2.“ Isabel says: “This is really beginning to go off the rails, if I may use a train analogy”. #hs2 #rishisunak #isabeloakeshott #talktv Click here for more from TalkTV If you need any help visit:
