London' transport system is too dependent on passenger fares, far moreso than most global cities, where government plays its part.The government is now grudgingly offering extra funding, but that support looksset to come with disastrous strings attached - strings that will be bad foranyone who works or travels on London's public transport.https://www.tssa.org.uk/about-tssa/what-we-do/campaigning/save-london-s-public-transporthttps://www.rmt.org.uk/campaigns/underground/save-londons-public-transport/https://www.unitetheunion.org/news-events/events/save-londons-public-transport-demo/https://londonacg.blogspot.com/2021/11/save-londons-public-transport-demo.html_________________________________________A - I N F O S N E W S S E R V I C EBy, For, and About AnarchistsSend news reports to A-infos-en mailing listA-infos-en@ainfos.ca
