Green signal given for first UK co-operatively owned railway service

Ok that is interesting.

I remember a show on TV a while ago, Where a local group tried this same thing. And ran into hurdles that indicated the government, seemed to be completely ignoring their own rules to benefit large corporations over set-ups like this.

This seems to indicate a huge positive in the new government, throwing out that level of capitalist prejudice on public transport.

EDIT: While no one sane would ever call this gov left wing.

I am really starting to feel positive towards their changes to public transport policy. If this continues and they have the time. We may actually start to see a comparably decent service with a decade or so.

PS: A hearty good on them for the co-op calling itself Go-op. Sorta makes a very well heard point.
