Sadly, these cuts were inevitable following the general election in May. We now have a government intent on destroying all public services as they are considered a drain on the exchequer. Personally, I am a frequent user of the Ormskirk route 3A which is clearly an essential service for the elderly. I wonder how many of them now regret placing an X next to a certain name on the ballot paper?
