All the news on his speech seems to be about HS2 but I think that this is important too.

I think if anything this is more important.
Sure, HS2 is a complete shambles and an embarrassment and we should be criticising what's going on, but this is a calculated and deliberate attack on human rights, and is a significantly bigger red flag that I wish more people took seriously.

It's also worth noting that HS2 is in shambles because Sunak, as chancellor, defunded and interfered with it
