YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Nigel Farage and this caller had a furious row over whether the HS2 is money well spent after Boris Johnson announced he has given the go-ahead to the project.

Martin from Bromley challenged Nigel's opposition to the HS2: "Imagine what the road network would be like if we hadn't built the motorways."

When Nigel said we already have train lines to Birmingham, Martin said people are focussed too much about the time it takes and emphasised we need more tracks.

"The only people using HS2 will be the rich," Nigel said and Martin responded that HS2 Limited will need to work something out that is cost-effective.

"Martin, we can build longer tracks, we can build longer trains, there are things we can do about capacity," Nigel said, "but the argument that we should spend this a vast amount of money to benefit a few people-"
