In reality, it just means the section of rail from birmingham to manchester will be a bit slower, the rest of the journey will be fast. It's not like the link is not there.

BBC News Text:
[Keir Starmer "abandoning Labour's 2019 manifesto
pledge to complete HS2 in full",
after he said he would stick to Mr Sunak's
new plans if elected. Sir Keir is quoted as telling
ITV News that the Tories have
"taken a wrecking ball to the project" and
he cannot pledge to "simply reverse it".]

BBC News Text:
[Reports that the HS2 rail project "may never reach
Euston without private funding".
The paper says Prime Minister Rishi Sunak's
freshly announced "Network North" plans are
already in doubt - "24 hours after
his [Conservative Party Conference] speech".]

Yesterday

Labour Leader Starmer confirmed
they will have no spare money for HS2.

Many knew this.
It was just Tubby Starmer confirming it,
