Yeah no arguments about the closure, it was more about not having a plan that a chunk of the staff weren't going to move with them leading to mass cancellations.
Whether that's having agency staff on call or whatever, who knows, but cancellations definitely isn't the answer as it's just going to piss people off again, which then means the remaining drivers get it in the neck, resulting in more drivers quitting and you're now in a vicious downwards spiral.
That all kicks off again later when they get their bonus for moving which happened at Blyth badly.
