Slightly disagree

No, we should improve existing rail networks instead

While Volt UK supports modern infrastructure, they also advocate for sustainable and efficient solutions. Improving existing networks could be seen as a more sustainable approach, but it might not fully align with the party's ambition for significant infrastructure modernization and connectivity enhancements. Therefore, they might slightly disagree with prioritizing improvements over new constructions like HS2.

Disagree

No

Given Volt UK's emphasis on modern infrastructure and connectivity as means to drive economic growth and integration, outright opposition to HS2 would be somewhat inconsistent with their broader objectives. However, without a clear stance from the party on this specific project, a definitive score is challenging to provide.
