His agent really needs to help him out, because it's clear he has a real problem with the subject.
Some people replying to this don't seem to know the meaning of "lie".
Suggesting that stopping HS2 means more money for the NHS is untrue: the opposite is the case. So to repeat it over and over again when people point this out is lying. Simple.

I've only just spotted this post, which is doing the rounds in anti-HS2 circles as a reason to ignore me.
The account in question is a vile one, and should be blocked and reported. It is just here to post misinformation and to abuse people. The last sentence is a complete lie.
I have had it blocked for a long time. I am also under the impression that it is a sock puppet handle for long-time Musk idiot Will Bradbury as it parrots the same sort of racist rubbish that he has in the past, via his other sock puppet Pedro somethingorother.
Oh, and obviously it is a complete lie. I have never spoken to that made-up MAGA bot in my life - such a thing would not be possible in the first place.
Watching @SadiqKhan introduce the new @SiemensMobility Piccadilly line rolling stock... He's talking about the Bakerloo/Central/Waterloo & City lines needing new deep tube stock, too. He has mentioned the need for "a long term viable funding model" for TfL - the UK needs one too!
There are going to be 94 new trains, mostly being put together in Goole (don't start the "assembled not built" nonsense - no trains are made by pouring pig iron in one door and rolling a train out the other). I hope that the run is extended, as it makes sense to have one fleet.
I'll miss the retro vibe of the old stock, but the Tube isn't a heritage railway so this new stock cannot come soon enough...
British post-war prime ministers as British Rail post-war locomotives: a thread.
Clement Attlee = Class 47
Best in class. Transformed services in Britain, providing a tremendous improvement for huge numbers of people. Showed signs of fatigue towards end of career and ought to have stepped away from front-line service earlier.
Winston Churchill = Class 37
Reliable and sturdy, though undoubtedly well past sell-by date in later years of service. A prolific smoker. The nation's focus for nostalgic views of the past that ignore a complicated history.
Hopefully, when HS2 is fully operational, people won't have the choice to fly. Any flights with a viable rail alternative should be regulated out of existence. And don't get me started on air miles - these also need to be regulated out of existence.
