Interesting read. Kind of incredible to me that there are several government backed schemes that seem little more than a way for landlords to legitimise their work. It looks like they take hundreds of pounds and do no actual checks. Its just a money printing scheme for massive American companies.

Its the bit that was talked about the most, but its really not the main point, just a side effect. The main purpose of hs2 is (was) the give more capacity on the overall network, especially on the east and West Coast main lines but it had benefits across most of the country.
