How the Swiss would have built HS2
Plus what Zack Polanski gets wrong about food prices
On YIMBY Pod this week:
James and Martin discuss Zack Polanski’s claim that food is too expensive – and why politicians should face up to difficult trade-offs. And James makes himself popular by defending the poor, beleaguer mega-corporations that own supermarkets.
And then we speak to the excellent Thomas Ableman about how Switzerland would have built HS2 – and why it wouldn’t have been a disaster.
James’s post about Liam Byrne, which was discussed in the episode is here.
James’s newsletter is here, and his post about the Elon Musk debate is here.
Martin’s newsletter is here, and his YouTube channel is here.
