HS2 Locals Speak Out

Dear Loyal Patrons
‪@MapplebyMusic‬and I thoroughly enjoyed interviewing locals from Great Missenden and The Lee.
I had thought about the natural progression of these videos and thought it would be fitting to get on the ground perspectives from people whom are affected by these HS2 Developments.
I enjoyed listening to their stories and their opinions on the project.
Do you have a story to tell?

I would be very surprised if any farmers or other land owners have had property expropriated by HS2 without compensation.

As a local I was against it initially but can now see the potential (and doesn’t the Colne Valley viaduct look GREAT).
Surely the question we should all be asking is how France, Italy, Spain (and I assume Germany) can build high-speed rail at a fraction of the cost (and don’t give me that compensation baloney)?

I wish I had a more balanced video, this was a random selected sample of people so somewhat representative of the overall populous. We tried to interview about 10 people in total. Should I make more? Or keep to the drone footage style videos?

"it costs money! >:I"
Sometimes I forgot theres a dedicated voterbase who just vote for as little infrastructure investment as possible. Also "we are smaller than France, it wont work for us", we are almost identical to France in Population/Size/Economy/climate its any excuse with these lot.
