    You’re from UK that somehow found the funds to enforce “pls don’t carry a knife”

    What I’m saying is that there’s always means to fund reasonable effort if there’s interest for it in the government. Hell, UK found the funds to completely fuck the exports and imports to/from EU

      While I agree that the government should fund sensible things. We’re not even willing to fund our NHS, we’re not about to fund free transport. So we need to look at practical means to make it fund itself and force the public to change their habits.

        I would argue that public transport is up there in the top 5 things government SHOULD be funding, as part of critical infrastructure.
