Latest on the Ruislip RFC HS2 foam - HS2 says tunnelling paused for 2 hours on Saturday. Foam was slurry. It says the site is safe but being monitored with extra anchors to stop subsidence. Locals are far from convinced & very concerned.
Tunnelling for HS2 halted as mysterious pool of bubbling foam appears – video theguardian.com/uk-news/vide…

So the eruption from the HS2 tunnel at Ruislip Rugby club is still bubbling at least 48hours since it was first reported on Saturday 18th Feb. Need the @EnvAgency to tell us what it is and how much has been lost into aquifer. This raises questions about all HS2 tunnels.

How are the community benefiting from the bubbling sink hole that has appeared at #Ruislip Rugby Club ? Good job the public reported it to you. So you could put a fence round it and a hastily laminated danger notice

Somewhere, very near you, is a tiny being, just going about their day.
They don’t care about you, or me, nor any of our worries.
And I find so much comfort in that 💚🐌

#HS2: cancelling this rail project is conceivable for the first time, it's become a national embarrassment inews.co.uk/uncategorized/hs…

HS2 was always going to end in tears. Let’s just put it out of its misery and scrap it altogether (ps, we save a ton of taxpayers’ cash if we do - and just think how much existing railways could be improved with that money). thesun.co.uk/news/21179002/h…

HS2 will go down as the most wasteful & environmentally damaging civil engineering project in living memory. A train wreck from start to finish #HS2

Local authorities seem helpless to stop or deter land owners from clearing green belt land, maybe @ThreeRiversDC planning department can explain as this particular site was cleared under their watch.

More than 3m people live within 10 miles of the Colne Valley Regional Park, with easy access to 43sq miles of waterways and countryside. Close proximity to a huge urban area means constant threats from development. That’s why we fight to preserve this precious landscape.

Please read; the most important piece I've written. Mass poisoning has suddenly killed off most sea life for 30 miles by the Tees. The govt claims it's natural; ind scientists warn it's manmade. The govt is desperate not to inquire too deeply as its freeport policy is at stake.

A new play area, tennis courts and an outdoor gym are among the improvements set to be installed at a Maple Cross playing field thanks to funding from Three Rivers District Council and a grant from the HS2 Community and Environment Fund.
