Abstract

This week George Osborne proposed building high speed rail links between northern cities, dubbed HS3, in order to establish a ‘Northern Powerhouse’ to rival London. Henry Overman chews over the Chancellor’s speech and finds that HS3 would help, but it would be expensive and it’s unlikely that it would be enough to provide an effective counterbalance to London.
