He's taking away healthcare for millions. He gets a thrill out of killing people on the open seas. He wants you to hate. Dwell on that โ€“ย he wants you to hate. He's demanding our justice department pay him $230,000,000. He thinks he owns the country.

He is a clear and present danger.

But with Elon Musk branding it โ€˜Wokipediaโ€™ and AI looming large, can it survive?

And the only operational high speed rail we have is HS1. Spain has the most in the world after China and France, Italy and Germany have plenty. Let's complete HS2 and extend it to Glasgow. Then consider HS from London to Edinburgh and to Bristol.

We have a lot of catching up to do.
