oooo Neil you are so wrong but this is the wrong thread to discuss it so next time I see you I will make sure you understand the whole issue of stock transfers and why they HAD to happen!!!
What I will say is just because staff moved over from the council does not make them bad staff at all.... things run under the council can be run completely different when transferred due to the reduction of red tape so some of these same people can then implement things that would improve service that under council ownership could not happen.... and no I am not suggesting that this is the same for this bus company, as people have said the transfer was 25 years ago!!
