    Agreed.

    Hell it would be a fair argument to renationalise all buses and trains and make the service free as a whole.

    Honestly that would be a very logical way about doing things. Companies (specifically high street retail but all companies) would benifit hugely. It would trully encourage Public transport over car use . Assuming matched with investment in services.

    And remember the lack of rural public transport since 2010 is forcing more and more non working retired or disabled people to be forced to move into cities etc. This is hugly increasing competition for housing and increasing the cost/distance lower paid workers are having to travel to work.

    But honestly non of these options was ever on offer. Yes its entirly fair to say hay more could be done.

    But it is no way acceptable to attack people as shill just for sharing the announcement as is. It is just attacking for the sake of attacking.
