UK Infrastructure: 10-year Strategy

Contribution

Last week something amazing happened: I actually found myself in agreement with the Labour Mayor for York and North Yorkshire, when he said that spending review “announcements fall well short”, and that this “government had a real chance to show it was serious about rural…areas—but it missed it.” Does the Chief Secretary to the Treasury agree with me that one of the best ways to invest in new infrastructure would be by dualling and electrifying the line between Leeds and York via Harrogate in order to unlock growth in our part of Yorkshire?
