I can't afford a private jet. It's tough titty.

i dont think they should be cutting all the sunday night busses as what about people that live in areas such as birchwood or culcheth. i live in cinnamon brow so would get the 26/27 bus but im fortunate my dad attends most games so i have a lift home. These busses are only one every hour anyway.

Don't blame me. I voted Labour.

If Gina was still here, i'd expect the club to try and turn this into a postive by suggesting/promoting some kind of Warrington Wolves Carpool scheme.

Or maybe we could get our Si to put on cheap buses.

Seems strange to axe them completely, why not cut them back to one every hour, or even just one bus per route after a certain time, effectively turning it into a circular or something similar.

well this fooks us up for getting home from leigh on semi day, lets hopes its at Widnes and i can get the train

Sunday evening trains will be cut next, mark my words.

I normally agree with most things you say on this board 71, but this is so wide of the mark, it's untrue. Do the elderly, infirm, cash strapped (that they can't afford to hire a cab, let alone afford to run a car) deserve a place in your world. Or is it "I'm all right, Jack"

No it's not that. A line does have to be drawn on what is effective use of a limited resource - i.e) tax payer revenues. We cannot continue to spend more than we earn as a country so cuts have to be made (unless you want to pay more tax).

Presumably these services have been cut by the council because the demand was so low in comparison to the costs. For example it may be the Sunday evening services cost the council 10% of the "bus subsidy spend" but only deliver 0.5% (if that) of the passenger numbers. Also the working week services have much more value as they are essential to take people to work. The services on the weekend are also aligned to retail opening times so as not to damage consumer spending in the town.

In answer to your question - of course they deserve a place in the world, but sometimes you can't always get what you want from the public sector for free - infirm, poor, elderly, young, and able bodied included.

It gets worse. According to www.warrington.gov.uk/images/MTF ... -43316.pdf they are going to introduce a charge to use the loo in the bus station to raise £30K pa.

I can't afford private eduction for my children, if the Government took away state education then my children would be uneducated. Tough Titty
I can't afford Private Healthcare, if the Government took away the NHS then if seriously ill I could die. Tough Titty
I can't afford to pay for my grandparents in their old age, if the Government took away the State Pension then they would be in Poverty. Tough Titty

Ad Infinitum.....................

We pay our taxes and dues so that each one of us can live safe in the knowledge that if we fall on hard times then the society that we all live in and contribute to will cover our backs until we are on our feet again.

Do any of us really want to live in a society and country where you can only get if you can afford.

I can't see where these people will be going on a Sunday night. If they are infirm or elderly then surely then can get a taxi? If they are cash strapped then where are they going on a Sunday evening? Can they not go to this place another day in the week?

like the hospital to visit friends or family..jump the bus to visit family..or go to the local for a few hours..or those who work really unsociable hours i.e part time.. ups and breweries spring to mind with our council
