Erm...I guess I was too obtuse for the tory mindset... that is exactly what I did when it was nationalised, went and spoke to someone in a shop in the town centre using a bus that was roadworthy, driven by a driver in a uniform that instilled trust and confidence...when it was privatised it took me 3 years to resolve using internet and phone because I kept having to explain the problem to different people over and over and over and over ad infinitum.

Although to be fair I didn't have to travel to a town centre full of drunks on a death trap minibus driven by a lunatic, so the swings and roundabouts argument could apply
