Yeah can't disagree not to mention the backlash when the likes of Arriva will have when the fares suddenly triple overnight when it eventually ends as it's impossible for them to keep the fares.

Just throws them under the bus imo, not to mention the issue of the likes of the X10/X15/X18 filled up with cheap fare punters who'll be gone when it does go back up causing capacity problems.
