Chiltern Rail uses diesel engined stock. I like them personally; I don't feel any need to get to work at 300 MPH. Although that would allow us to move back to Northumberland, buy a castle and commute to Canary Wharf from there

Depends how much the tickets cost. I wouldn't accept subsidising a HSR line to help relatively highly paid London commuters.

It doesn't matter what happens with oil to be honest.
However I doubt people would be stupid enough to vote to leave the EU!

I don't think the public will be given a say will they?

The whole of Wales still relies on diesel trains, i don't mind them. I do have an issue with trains that were brought in in the 80s that are STILL in use today. They are like buses on rails, seats about as comfortable as a church pew.
Trains here are stupid expensive too. I'd rather get the bus than the train nowadays as the buses seem to at least be reliable and don't increase in price every year.
This country rejected the AV system in 2011 so I can't see why they'd vote differently if PR was offered.
Well the government can simply reduce the subsidy given to the operator. Although I guess it'd be embarrassing to have spend £40bn on a line which no one uses because the tickets are really expensive.
Hasn't eurotunnel and eurostar only recently started making money.

They are all so manufactured. They are taught not to accept the premise of the question, which is why it is so rare to have one provide a straight answer.

Or, it could simply be that the Scottish people want a viable 3rd option for them? Everyone is tired of the Tory/Labour crap, the SNP is a better 3rd choice.

True PR is a 'fairer' system isn't it?

They were buses literally. Buses added to freight chassis, think they were Leyland buses
Which is their right.
But the result isn't going to achieve SNPs primary goal of getting rid of the Conservative party which has supposedly hurt Scotland so much.
If Labour yield now, they won't get those seats back anytime soon.
Seems to have given them possible stronger Tory gov cause of it.

Even if everyone in Scotland voted labour how would that help Scotland doesn't matter

Although aren't they supposed to be taken out of service by 2020? Something to do with disabled access i believe. They should have been taken out of service 10 years ago imo.
