I wasn't meaning the public being interested I was referring to 'in the public interest'. That is what the council do because the public don't appear to be able to take their own interest to heart the council do it for them
All the public is interested in is prices, lower the better in their eyes, so low they'd moan about a quid for a 3 mile ride, my area proves it, they ignore us because they know the 4 seater ride is cheaper on PH, but the kicker is they still ring for a 6 seater and the PH 6 seater is more expensive than us.
If there is any improvement to be had it's the council sets the rate for all, and all have a meter, and campaign to let the public know they pay no more than the meter and to ensure it's on, that way it comes down to service and convenience.
Again another reason why the council take care of the public interest because the public don't seem to want to
