Prime Minister Rishi Sunak used his address at the Conservative Party Conference in Manchester today to announce the cancellation of the contentious HS2 line from Birmingham to Manchester, while criticising the Labour leader and committing to reshaping British politics.
In a speech that challenged political norms, Mr. Sunak labelled HS2 as the “ultimate example of the old consensus” and criticised opposition leader Sir Keir Starmer for being ensnared in the political status quo.
