Most extreme #SolarStorm in 20 years brings beautiful #Northern#Lights. Photos taken from all over the world show bright-colored skies across Europe, New Zealand and in the U.S., where it was visible farther south than usual.
When the #northern stretch of #HS2 was canned last year, there was a widely held view that a swift sell-off of compulsory purchased land on route would make reviving the #rail project impossible & the sales would hand handy profits to the 'friends of Rishi'.
However, it now seems (as always) things have moved much more slowly, and no land sales are likely before the election, leaving Labour (if elected) the option to reviving HS2 North.
Whether that's a good or bad thing is another matter!
By announcing that the money that has been saved by binning large elements of #HS2 & replacing it with the hodgepodge of fragmented projects in the (so-called) Network North is now going to be spent on filling potholes in #London.
After the cancellation of #HS2's remaining #Northern section, Andy Bagnall, from Rail Partners (the train operators) told the FT
“if we get reform right, the railway can still be an engine for green growth in Britain... If we don’t, a generation will be put off from using rail to travel & move goods, leading to another era of managed decline'!
Despite special pleading from #railway operators, without a central role for #publictransport its hard to see how to get #netzero!

I wonder if The Times will report this news considering they were reporting how kids in #Wales & #Northern Ireland got 'help' this year compared to the #English kids?
Tells you all you need to know about the English media that they are now trying use the kids in Wales and NI, as scapegoats for the English Department of Education failures.
