There's no question that this is a huge operational challenge and they need support in delivering it, but even if you are taking drivers away from struggling operating companies to support, its not really something to brag about on twitter!

It's one I've been keeping a close eye on. Knew it was coming, but assumed (clearly incorrectly) that measures would be in place to ensure operations wouldn't be affected or impacted locally.
Hence not highlighting it on here.
In the case of Percy Main:
*How many drivers have they lost to Manchester temporarily?
*How many drivers have they lost (ie resigned) as a result of the business pressures and impact of seeing colleagues seconded elsewhere?
*What is the short, medium and longterm impact on passengers on both existing and recently introduced routes?
Bearing in mind all of this is ongoing during pay talks, with some drivers now off earning (I presume) an enhanced rate, it really smacks of an absolutely stinking culture.
