HS2 scrapped - Andy Street won't resign

Available for over a year

Andy Street talks to Âé¶¹Éç political editor Chris Mason alluding to today's confirmation that the line will still link Birmingham and London. Sunak name-checked Street twice during his speech, and the mayor, who has spent the Conservative Party conference lobbying to keep HS2 intact, says a meeting he had with the PM was "cordial" and they left on good terms. Street also confirms that he will remain a Conservative, having earlier repeatedly refused to rule out resigning, and says he intends to run again as mayor.
