A public transport system that is uncordinated and a total mess. I used a night bus last week and it was rammed. Come on, seriously? 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ If Glasgow City Council want people out their cars, why are the alternatives getting worse and worse? First Glasgow Get Glasgow Moving

1994: Strathclyde Council challenges the might of the United Kingdom's Government by holding an unofficial referendum against water privatisation 2023: Glasgow City Council asks a private bus company nicely whether they might be willing to think about running a few night buses

"Profit-driven bus companies only want to run at busy times and in busy places, which means that people can’t plan their lives around public transport.” 🚍💸Get Glasgow Moving in yesterday's @Guardian No More Excuses, it's time to Regulate our Buses! theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/j…
