The other thing is that they're not allowed to. Local authorities are banned from setting up new bus companies or buying existing ones.

Yes I knew that but don't they run services towards Berwick?? Where's the nearest First depot to here? leeds/yorK about same distance
There are ways and mean to do thing. They could set up a arms length service to be run as a private company??? My local NHs runs a private company so when no a council.
Anyway if is not allowed how about first? Just please not SCNE or GNE.
