It's happening?

I take it you missed where George Osborne mentioned £6bn of public money for just this such a thing, along with a purported £20bn from the National Association of Pension Funds and the Pension Protection Fund.

In addition to this there's some interest from China in investing in UK infrastructure.

I appreciate it may be a weird concept getting private investment in but it works pretty well elsewhere. Maybe they have a point?

Keep dreaming. Companies don't pay tax their customers do. Yes that's us.
What the government spends on Transport is nowere near enough, we need far more new and extra trains for example

And we need to crack down on busineeses like Topshop from evading tax and claw back evaded taxes!
