YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Kay Burley spoke with the mayor of Greater Manchester Andy Burnham and discussed the only topic of the day - the decision, to effectively scrap the northern leg of HS2.

Mr Burnham said: "I just find myself asking the question - why do they think they can treat people here in this way?"

He said the decision should be taken in consultation with the various stakeholders, and said: "They should not be made by people holed up in hotel rooms at a party conference."
