EMQs: Can HS2 be revived from the dead?
The killing of HS2 was one of the defining features of the former government’s final days but there’s now talk the high speed rail line to Manchester might happen after all. Northern Powerhouse Chief Executive Henri Murison asks what Ed Balls and George Osborne make of the chatter that it could be revived, in the form of the so-called ‘HS2 light’. How should we truly define a “pensioner”? Does it just mean someone who is actually receiving a pension, or someone who is of pension earning age? And should pensioners with wealth be treated in the same way as those without? Plus, Ed and George share their favourite moments of political barb and banter. What was George’s scariest moment as a politician? You could have been listening to this episode of EMQs early and ad-free!
