Dear f**kw*t Cllr Wales,
Please tell me WTF happens when more than one bus arrives at a bus stop at the same time. Or are there so few in your borough that this could never happen?
To be fair to the idiots, the Council is not responsible for organising the buses or indeed the location or size of the stops - that's the job of TfL/the Bus Companies.
Any properly run Bus/Coach company should know that (certainly in London) Bus Stops are only to be used by 'Local Buses' which of course are the ones painted red, and had Barnet Council used the proper equipment in the correct way, the PCN would (probably) have been upheld.
Whoever it was at the Council who decided that the Coach company couldn't have their money back, let alone be forced to go to the Court to get it should (IMHO) be sacked.
