    Nothing like muddying the name of your competitors from a couple of bitter company owners on national radio.

    You wouldn't think there'd be much competition for a school run on Craggy Island.

    Fillup, nobody knows how to put a wheelchair on a bus other than us who have had the cushy contracts for years, it's a disgrace.

    As far as knowing the route is concerned, what's to stop someone doing a few dummy runs in a car and taking notes.

    How has this debate lasted this long, just because somebody bids a lower price does not mean they are any less qualified.

    This is pointless liveline at its finest

    Is there not standard wheelchairs and retraints? If not clearly there should be.

    That'd be awkward. They could only have hearings between the morning run and the evening run and no hearings during Christmas, Easter and the summer holidays. They'd all want travel expenses and they'd need large parking spaces. I suppose they could take it in turns in collecting other drivers and bringing them to the tribunal, though all the other drivers would have to be blindfolded so that they don't know what route they are being brought on.

    If they awarded it to the most expensive bidder we'd have the other bidders on saying it's a waste of taxpayer's money.

    Well I was using their own sentence to highlight their error, thus taking a degree of poetic licence to make my point.

    There's no evidence that the driver is safer Fillup, she just said safety training didn't she ?

    Edit: Ha ha, there you go, rolling back.

    How can she say the 'safer' driver was beaten by price ? She can back up very little of what she was saying, and PBH is taking it as gospel...
