He must be referring to the gold coloured buses running in parts of Kent and Sussex which are state of the art, hopefully they will invest soon in replacements for our local single deckers that have seen better times.

Noticed recently that the 11. 25 am bus to Aycliffe often leaves Pencester Road with only 2 or 3 passengers on, I can see Stagecoach cutting that leg of the journey if it continues like that.

Dedicated vehicle excise duty? Higher taxes for car owners! Dedicated how? to buses rather than roads?

Hypothecation! Hypothecation! Hypothecation!
I'm sure someone could use that in a conference speech.

Buses also use those roads so the passengers will have an uncomfortable bumpy journey on all those extra busses. Robbing Peter to pay Paul seldom works out well for anyone.
