I am ending this long running saga. I am cancelling the rest of the h52 project. And in its place. And in its place, we will reinvest every single penny, £36 billion, in hundreds of new Transport Projects in the north and the midlands, across the country. This means £36 billion of investment in the projects that will make a real difference across our nation. Applause ijust want to remind you exactly what hs2 actually is.

We have a rogue judge who ruled the properties are worth a tiny fraction, 1 100th, a tiny fraction of what they actually are. We have a racist Attorney General who is a horror show who ran on the basis she would get trump before she even knew anything about me. She used this to run for governor. She failed in her attempt to run for governor. Virtually no following. She came back and said now i will go back to get trump again. This is what we have is a scam and sham. Just so you know, my Financial Statements are phenomenal. They are actually less in terms of the numbers used than the actual net worth. The actual neath worth is substantially nor. No bank was affected or hurt and dont know why they have to be involved. They have so testified.
