Comment | It isn’t up to the government to intervene in legitimate private business. If the Scottish government want a night bus running then they can run it themselves, provide subsidies or fund local authorities to operate local transport.
First bus are a private company. It’s the same as saying ‘the scottish government need to step in and and tell my local newsagent he needs to stay open 24/7 because it suits me.”
No they don’t.
Until transport is in the hands of public authorities then we are at the mercy of private operators running a business to generate a profit. They do not need to provide services that lose them money. |
