Private companies awarded franchising contracts and not being able to run their trains properly. If we do the same to buses I don't see how it'll help the situation.
If we do get franchising I hope all drivers earn the same (expierenced ones) so if there is a strike everything will be disrupted. As when SC Sunderland striked it wasnt that big of a deal, its like if just Percy Main striked, but when everyone strikes they cannot do anything
I'm in favor of nationalizing buses and trains but the gullible members of the public will keep voting for conservatives regardless what shit stirring they do.
