I will never be able to hear the words HS2 and not think of this incredible illustration from French TV news trying to understand why high-speed train projects are a failure in the UK

Le Pen, 11 MEPs and 12 parliamentary assistants found guilty of embezzlement. Some MEPs seem to have been found not guilty.
