Along similar lines, I don't get the Edinburgh hate for the tram

becoming of a European capital city in 2016.


The scots love to moan. Edinburgh could do with a proper metro, never mind
a tram.

I also don't like the "first and second class" nature of bus vs Tube.
It should be one fare set for a journey on TfL, regardless of what mode
or combinations thereof are used. If that causes certain groups


Which unless you start zoning the buses would mean a flat fare on the tube
which I've advocated for years.
