I've serious on the other platform with said eye on Scots independence.saying that there is a big pile of cash. They aren't happy when I've pointed out the NI fund has three months of expenses... and nothing more. (If you had Scotlands demographics you'd been unhappy too)

(TfL stat is broadly current, BVG is from 2010. Suspect lower post covid)

You'll find the percentage of costs paid by the passenger are very different in each city. Fare evasion has a bigger hit on TfL's total income. BVG recovers 70pc compared to 100pc plus for TfL.

They don't care. Think they are immune.

They might find that becomes explosive.

I'm sure the new Mayor of Lincolnshire is very keen on stopping climate change, right?
comment in response to post
Bearing in mind the British context this is significant. It's clearly not enough but it is a start...

Selling your own productions and showing those of others? ITV companies from 1955 to 2010 would like a word...

It's the old lie you can have a fully funded public sector with US taxation. Turns out relying on North Sea Oil/City of London wasn't sustainable.

This is hilarious. I worked for a large public body in a cost reduction role and their approach is guaranteed to not work

In home town nearly all the banks have left and their premises are largely food and beverage places, although one is a kitchen showroom. I'm not sure this is a bad thing. The sister town next door has had a collapse of the high street. Problem is that people like online shopping.

Tories with plenty of money who regard Farage as an oik.
