ANYWAY, who would be a bus driver? Cardiff busmen have had not only to suffer police brutality on the football field, as I reported on November 7; they have been beaten up eight times in eight weeks by the public and staged a 24-hour strike in protest.
Even worse, a Lincolnshire Road Car driver was banned from wearing a male chauvinistic pig tie, which Christopher Moyes, commercial manager, said was "offensive to passengers". This is, of course, a good example of the conduct for which busmen are attacked by an outraged public.
Drivers may wear only regulation or trade-union ties. This obviously is why I have never seen a Lincolnshire busman sporting the Old Etonian emblem.
