Despite the likely questions over the bill for such works, Johnson repeated that his government would not return to the austerity policies seen under Conservative former Prime Minister, David Cameron. He said, that he was going to act fast “to build our way back to health”. The plan, already dubbed "Project Speed", with a pledge to fast-track building projects such as hospitals, schools, housing, and road and rail infrastructure, part of efforts to try to stem a fall in support for his government. “It’s an important plan as we move out of this awful, awful period of coronavirus, this dreadful disease, we want to get Britain moving again, We are building now very much a road to recovery, a roadmap, focusing on infrastructure right now ... focused on roads, broadband, the type of things that effectively help to create jobs but also provide services and economic growth and opportunity around the country,” added UK's Interior Minister Priti Patel
