Only 4 Punks are in the tunnel.

They will dig them out,
hopefully alive.

5 have been detained under arrest.

HS2 are planting new tree's as the go.
They are also moving badgers.
Rail is better than a car.

Great, do all sorts to disrupt that stupid thing.

Release protected species onto sites the places the planned route goes through, and then "discover" their presence.

Swampy has his 16 year old son
in the tunnel.

He told Ch4HDnews
he wanted to be in it.

Thats irresponsible.

The Workers are doing a parallel tunnel
to get them out.


Heavy Rain Tonight
Could flood the tunnel

Disgusting!!

They have been protesting this when I was back in school.

For what, the sake of saving a few minutes? There's already lots of transport options.

What about our beautiful countryside and climate warming? We need trees.

So unnecessary

Screw levelling up, having a slightly faster train service isn't worth all the environmental damage HS would cause.
