They still have the problem of the SS Richard Montgomery which still has 1,400 tonnes of explosives and all the native birds which migrate or live in that area of Kent. Plus like someone else said, the infrastructure of London barely copes as it is. It would have been nice to see the amount of money going into HS2 to be used for upgrading our railways, then the support would be there. Unfortunately our government seems to have an attitude of dealing with a problem when it happens/gets too much media coverage, rather than taking a preventative approach.
