It's an interesting perspective.
The Galleries Bus Station is almost becoming a no-go zone, but we know it's not the only place. It's happening all over, and once one hot spot is closed down, another is found.
It's taken Metro to have private security patrols on every train, which can't be sustainable in the long term.
The level of Policing is shocking. 13 years of austerity plays a big part, but it's not the knly issue here.
Operators also need to do more, as they have a duty of care to their staff, if nothing else. If places like the Galleries Bus Station are a no-go area on an evening, then put your own security on or pull services until authorities are prepared to step up and tackle the issue.
It feels like no one is willing to talk to each other, and sadly, it's the drivers in the firing line.
