Me again, popping up like the turd that won’t flush, but the governance of the railways… in this part of the world… christ on a stick
Latest ‘news’ from yet another revolving tosser-minister you wouldn’t put in charge of heating a pan of baked beans reads;
“Currently (mis-spelt, imo with three more letters than needed), Harper said, railways “have a broken model, unable to adapt to customer needs, and financially unsustainable”.
He added: “Left untreated, we will drive passengers away with poor performance, which leads to fewer services, which will drive more passengers away and so on and so on. Only major reform can break that cycle of decline.”
The actual fuck, his dysfunctional organisation created the rail shitshow
I pay £7.80 for a single between stations
A return is £11.80
Accordingly the article quotes the Department for Transport where “the system should reduce most single fares, which can be almost the same price as a return under traditional fare practices”
In what fucking world?
