NS, were you not aware that the vast majority of public bus services received public subsidy?
In Glagsow city centre, you generally cannot move for hundreds of buses, all attempting to get somewhere, all with an average of three people on board.
The best result was one evening in early 2013, when I managed to count 58, yes 58, buses lining Renfield Street, from the bus terminus, to Union Street.
I was walking down, some of the buses had no one aboard, except the driver, all going somewhere mind you. This at 4.00 in the afternoon.
The best bit was when Keith Brown, the Scottish Transport Minister, came on BBC attempting to explain why the carbon emissions target had not been met, in fact it had failed miserably, and he actually blamed the recent spell of cold weather, and people putting their heating on for longer.
When asked if he was aware that Hope Street in Glasgow is one of the most polluted streets in Europe, he suggested that the equipment might be faulty, and wrongly placed.
Utterly priceless:
