March 2, 2012 - PRLog -- Transport Minister Keith Brown was meeting on 1st March with UK transport Secretary Justine Greening to urge her to make the extension of high speed rail to Scotland as a priority.

The Scottish government has approved to invest about £9 billion to build new line if Westminster agrees. Edinburgh Pentlands SNP MSP Gordon MacDonald said the Tories had previously reneged on promises to Scotland over Eurostar (http://www.londonparistrains.com) which was originally planned to connect to Scotland, but did not.

He also said that, High speed rail must not repeat the missed opportunities of Eurostar(). Scotland needs this service to help businesses grow and the economy to develop.

There are some reviews from readers regarding this MSP Extension:

•   rush rush because if independent it will never happen
•   Fingers crossed that scotland votes for independence, a direct result will be a reduction in the cost of HS2 because scotland wont get a 10% barnett consequential!
•   realistically, it won't even get built to the north of england, and the odds on any stage getting built aren't much shorter
•   Is he arriving by Scottish Government limo? It doubles up as the ex-Marine's mobile office didn't you know?! Maybe Keith Brown sort the many problems on the Glasgow - Edinburgh line before getting ideas above his station please?
•   doesnt Scotland need to decide on independance first?
