Extinction Rebellion

To be fair. That part of hs2 hasn’t had the go ahead yet. This tree felling in a nature reserve is ‘preparation work’. They haven’t even started water safeguarding assessments and there’s a real chance it’ll not pass.

'Buckinghamshire County Council has formally resolved to call for the government to halt its “enabling” works for HS2 in Bucks until such times as the project receives formal Notice to Proceed. This Notice has recently been postponed for a second time, till at least the end of this year, as the three main tests have not been met. The tests relate to the robustness of HS2’s business case, the completion of the design for the whole line and the fitness of HS2 Ltd to deliver the project. As we all know, not one of these is anywhere near being met.'

Copied from a local (Ruislip) anti-HS2 campaigner, who has asked our council, London Borough of Hillingdon to follow Bucks CC's example.
It will come too late for the +/-400 mature trees on Ruislip Municipal Golf Course which recently became large piles of woodchip.
