Hand outs from the city coffers, domination of the city streets, the city centre designed for the bus company, subsidies from the Government , Fuel Tax Rebate scheme and on and on. Each time a minister stands up in the house and announces more millions for the bus companies i start foaming at the mouth. So next time you get your community charge bill, just wonder for a min how much of this is going to the share holders of a multinational company. If you are a share holder it will make you happy, but for the rest of us it will make us bloody mad. As for getting help from the council, I have learned one thing from my years attending meetings at the council house.
Resistance is futile.
First Bus have friends in high places taxi drivers have no friends in this council. Thanks again Mike Maddock .
