Labour to review every major infrastructure project to 'get Britain building again'

[admin]

Labour will examine every ongoing major infrastructure project to "get Britain building again on day one" after it wins a general election, Rachel Reeves has said. The shadow chancellor said that Louise Hague, her front bench colleague responsible for transport, will also commission an independent expert inquiry into the HS2 fiasco "to learn lessons for the future". In a speech at the Labour Party conference, Ms Reeves said the high-speed rail line wasn't the only project that had been delayed and gone over budget, as she called Britain the "sick man of Europe" when it comes to building.
