So frustrating such an important project to get heavy goods off the roads are attacked by people who should support it - now it could be decades before the British public will trust another major rail infrastructure project. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] sukhmel@programming.dev 2 points 2 years ago (1 child) So, blame eco protectors for the govt inability to prepare and finish a project while conveying its importance to the public? permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] VirtualOdour@sh.itjust.works 1 point 2 years ago (1 child) I'm not blaming swampy for all the problems but if you actually look at the events that unfolded it was a significant part of the issues, people have been very clear about the importance of it and all the documents were there for anyone to view - I'm just saying that the fact eco protesters targeted it is a serious failing of the eco protesters and once again attention hungry idiots doing harm to the thing they pretend to care about.
