It's why HS2 has huge bills and is half-cancelled. We kept having to build tunnels to protect a field, or bats, or whatever else. It's why the Lower Thames Crossing has been delayed and delayed for a decade and it also would have held back the Theme Park.
I love wildlife but Sunak's £100m bat tunnel was just batty!

And the way the Conservatives caved in on expensive tunnels into London was pure nimby politics which increased the country's debt unnecessarily.
