Have to say as someone who lives in the south east, I strongly suspect
that HS2 will worsen my transport options to the middle and north of the
country. That is one reason I am very wary of the claims made for it.

If it's anything like the TGV service from Paris to Barcelona (not quite
there yet) it will make a vast improvement.

It's being promoted wrongly. It's a London to Glasgow route being built in
stages. Not a London to Birmingham route which might get extended.
