UK papers have been writing nonsense about railways for 200 years. But we battle on.

Of course if the Telegraph’s fanboys hadn’t persuaded Sunak to wreck HS2 they might have been able to get to Manchester.

Repeated protests are how we show something is really, truly important. It’s how we raise the stakes, dial up the game. It’s one of our most important forms of peaceful transition.
