George Osborne’s assertion in his conference speech that the Conservatives are the political “builders” included references to billions of pounds worth of infrastructure projects. The chancellor will struggle to match his words with deeds because it is much easier to make the case for an expensive project than to build one.
Nonetheless, he made the case for a new generation of ambitious schemes. But will they ever see the light of day?
