And this codswallop from Crow Bar Bob...
"This is a bitter blow to the UK rail industry and it is a scandal that a giant company like Deutsche Bahn can play fast and loose with our rail services in this way and then and cut run when they decide the profit margins aren't fat enough for their liking.
"The UK Government should now step in and nationalise the route to protect both the jobs and the popular Wrexham & Shropshire services and there should be a full inquiry into how this operation, set up with Welsh government and taxpayer support, has been ground into the dust by Deutsche Bahn. Public ownership would protect that public investment rather than allowing the private rail asset strippers to walk away from the wreckage."
Where to begin?
Knee-jerk Bob appears to confuse a thumping loss with a “fat profit margins”.
If the service was as “popular” as Bob believes then it wouldn’t be closing.
As for "nationalising" the route - Hellooooo. Earth to Bob. Come in Bob.
Do any of RMT's members actually believe any of this guff that is being spouted in their name?
