You asked the question. I answered the question.
Equally I gave my reason for criticising the extension to service 5, since it comes about at the expense of the loss of service 9 from North Shields. You are considering this from someone living in South Shields; my concern is what's happening in North Shields.
I see no further point in continuing this dialogue, and so I now consider it closed.
