I think GNE deserve a bit of credit here - it would've been easy to just keep running basically nothing and while others are right this won't help workers, it will massively help some of the most vulnerable, socially isolated who rely on public transport to get to a bit of basic human engagement. Yes it's not much but this does come across to me as the first decent thing GNE have done in this sorry debacle.
It's just shows more incompetence to me as by going by the times it's the school bus drivers running stuff rather than sitting around doing nothing all day.
This should've been done from day 1 if they were going to do it.
Also I hope the drivers get abuse for being a bunch of scabs. No respect from me.
