Ex DG of the @britishchambers @AJBMarshall shows how strong the business support is for the Eastern leg of #HS2 In Feb this year nearly 120 business leaders- from SMEs to FTSE 100 companies- wrote to the PM from the Connecting Britain campaign demanding full delivery 1/2

Southern & Scottish newspapers should be expressing the same anger. Future govts will come to regret short-sighted mothballing of #HS2 eastern leg. news.sky.com/story/hs2-nort… HS2: Northern newspapers unite as part of backlash against Boris Johnson's scaling back of rail projects

Brilliant video from the @NorthernAgenda_ & titles across the North Full delivery of the Eastern leg of #HS2 is a once-in-a-generation chance to transform connectivity, attract investment, create new jobs, build new homes, boost skills and opportunity across the North & Midlands
The Northern Agenda@NorthernAgenda_

With the Government unveiling its rail vision this week, we hope this video and our campaign will give Boris Johnson and his Ministers some food for thought thenorthernagenda.co.uk

A real strategic plan means the government keeping promises to build HS2 to the North, in full, including the Eastern leg - so Yorkshire and the east of the country isn't left behind once again, and making more room for local commuter connections on our existing rails. 2/3

@grantshapps expected to announce full details of the long awaited plan for the North & Midlands this week Whether to deliver the Eastern leg of #HS2 in full or not in the Integrated Rail Plan is a huge economic decision for our future & litmus test on #LevellingUp
