British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak will set out his mission to fundamentally change the country at his Conservative party's conference on Wednesday, and finally end uncertainty over the future of a high-speed rail project to northern England.
With the delay of the northern section of the rail project known as HS2 almost a certainty, Sunak will try to rally a divided party with a call to action, saying he wants to overturn a political system that prefers the "easy decision, not the right one".
"Not always popular immediately in the short term, but nonetheless, difficult decisions he makes for the long term for a brighter future." Sunak will say the decision - which has taken weeks to announce - shows he is focusing on the long term rather than what he described as the political obsession with short-term opportunism.
If it is scrapped or delayed, business leaders say Sunak should be accused of doing the exact opposite of his speech - being driven by short-term political gain rather than considering the value a new high-speed train line could offer generations to come.
