veto that please

I'd rather see some bridges to the semi indy islands between us and ireland

Ye I'm personally against a bridge between Scotland and Ireland as well

The ecological damage would be huge

and why the fuck would we need it

Exactly

It's just another potential HS2 farce

yep

It'd be more funny if he suggested something to the Netherlands tho

that'd freak the french out

build one between cornwall and the falklands

go big or go home

The sooner crossrail and HS2 are scrapped the better

crossrail has got lizzies name on it tho

no one would politically take it

Ahaha ye that'd keep the pesky Argentinas away from out land 😂

@notaglobe Does it?

colloquially

Ahh

It's taken too much money and too much time to build, it'll take decades for it to make back the money we spent on it

Ahh I see

mmm

they did well to name it after her

makes it impossible to kill

Is it even halfway built yet?

fuck knows, i'm not even paying attention to shit in london

that's someone elses problem

Not if your taxes are paying for it

i'm not sure if it is my taxes

isn't TFL paid for by london taxes

Money changes hands so much in our power structure that some of you taxes probably did end up in London

it depends what you consider "in London" or my taxes

True true

To be fair it's a weird saying and probably outdated now since we no longer have a feudal system

like do you mean money as in the capital I paid, if you could track each penny I paid and where the psyical unit goes, or if money for things that I should be paying for were diverted to go into london improperly

because if you mean like, the psyical unit that I paid, probably

Ye that's what I was meaning

yeah, well, in that case, the psyical embodyment of capital that I paid going somewhere else doesn't really matter to me

as long as the money on the spreadsheet that I paid is correctly used

then I'm ok with that
