So, just to make sure the #North has no chance of reversing the cancellation of the North of #Birmingham section, #RishiSunak has authorised the immediate sale of properties/sites compulsory purchased along the route; while this might not (quite) make reviving the plan(s) impossible, it makes it a lot more difficult.
For those in the #North who voted #tory, this surely must be the final piece of evidence needed to conclude you were misled & exploited for Southern gains?
