Intamin Blitz for me.

It definitely looks interesting. I know EP will blow it out of the water when it comes to the theming and overall aesthetic, although I must admit that I'm still not expecting this to really push the envelope and become the signature coaster at the park.

I think you could pick a random member of the British public to be PM and they'd be more competent than Rishi and Truss combined.

Feel like BPB are all over the place at the min. They'd be wise to push this back now until 2023. It's clearly not going to be ready for next month either, and people may be holding off on a visit now until it opens. Need to give people something to work with. Mandy seems a bit clueless as...
