    No Strikes on Scotrail / Transport for Wales

    Exactly. Without changes to T&C’s this all could have been done and dusted. Would have been cheaper for the taxpayer also. Government belligerence has dragged this out.

    Listening to stuff on public transport without earphones should be illegal. Life imprisonment.

    So who are these 'faceless' decision makers at the DfT and why are they not held accountable to the public?
