Well the inevitable has happened & dear old Boris has given HS2 the signal to proceed, just recently Boris said '‘We must reverse the appalling loss of habitats and species, it's only by repairing the damage to the natural world that we can address the problem of climate change’
It's all very well TALKING THE TALK, but until governments learn how to WALK THE WALK things will never change, it needs someone bold enough to break the links of the chain & not be driven by the pull of business, I know the old saying of "money makes the world go round" is true from the bottom to the top & we all take our share no matter how big or small. But as I get older I'm beginning to think there has to be a better way.
Today I had to visit a friend who’s moved to North Bucks, so dug out an old OS map from the early seventies, which showed a train line running north from Aylesbury, through Brackley & on towards the Midlands, I know some of it still exists today, now this would have been a far less destructive option if it could be re-instated, albeit at a slower speed (do we really need to live our lives at break neck speed anyway??) & be accessable to a larger travelling public.
