Jun 26, 2010 - I didn't like Lord Adonis. I am not a tory but I somewhat prefer Philip Hammond. Adonis has not heard of UK Ultraspeed, the other bid for a new high speed network (maglev and surprisingly at a much cheaper price!). check out their website 500 kmh dot com. cant type web adress in comment
