more than enough buses during the day when most jobseekers would be seeking work. ::)

I won't knock this idea because it all helps but the people I feel sorry for most are those in work but who are on such lousy wages/tax credit that they can neither afford to own a car or gain cheaper bus fares from being on JSA. There's a significant group there who now seem to be getting shot at from all directions.

I think this is an excellent idea and well done to Stagecoach for something that will be a great help to some people in these difficult times.
