    Have to admit, i want Universal as much as the next enthusiast, but I think the Gov thats been in office all of 5 seconds, during a cost of living crisis, after a suprrise snap election, probably does have bigger things to think about in this immediate second. I'll panic if theres no movements come year end. In terms of do I think it will happen? Still think very likely. But thats with the caveat that I wont be taking it as a given until theyve broken ground and I have said all along that if anything stops it, i suspect it will be to do with UK planning.

    Even if it costs hundreads of millions of £ to build some roads and railway upgrades etc. That is still around 0.01% of their budget. The government doesn't want the tax payer paying for infrastructure that is only really for the benefit of the park, without the park those upgrades don't need to exist so the park should really foot the bill and its a drop in the ocean to their budget. I'm not seeing any evidence of delays though, since no deadline was ever really given to start with. Universal has made parks around the world they surely accounted for these situations. The last government not being able to agree on a financial support package could just be because there was no point given they knew an election was coming, so the government did not focus on it since anything they agree without could've been undone by the next government.

  • @Judventures
    @Judventures6 күн бұрын

    @@WelshGuitarDude 0.01%? That would make the budget £100 billion? The budget is only £10 Billion. but yes, even so it's only a fraction of the overall cost, however I'd argue that there is no benefit to the park, people will turn up regardless of how well the local infrastructure holds up. The benefits will mainly be seen by local residents having better transportation options and less congestion, some of these plans for improvement were already in place before universal came knocking, which is why Universal likely dont want to foot the entire bill.

  • @nemomaniac
    @nemomaniac6 күн бұрын

    Should the title read “Delayed?”. As this is largely conjecture and how you read into it. The letter says the previous government couldn’t agree to a financial package. It doesn’t say communication or discussions broke down. I understand people feel the need to make content on this as it’s potentially so huge. But I think this is likely a non story. It’s simply that an election was called and the people that were dealing with this on the government side have since changed. Of course they couldn’t agree, the government changed. 😅

  • @Judventures
    @Judventures6 күн бұрын

    @@nemomaniac I think it all comes down to how you interpret the letter. The letter specifically asks if this government is willing to come back to the negotiating table which implies that the negotiations had ended. And the use of 'Delayed' seemed more appropriate than 'cancelled'. As I mentioned in the video, I fully believe that the project will go ahead, and would likely be further in the process than it is now, had it not been for the delay of financial aid not being agreed.

    @@Judventures yeah, but if you look at the timeline of events I don’t think it’s a stretch to suggest that discussions likely ended due to the change in government / election.

    Well Universal did state that they'll come to a decision (possible approval towards the end of the year). The delay is due to the surprise election being called and the new labour govt being in place. The election threw a slight spanner in the works but luckily the local MP who was reelected seemed to be doing a good job trying to press forward with it. I suspect that most likely that Universal will likely agree to this at the earliest of September.
