Depends who wants to buy it. A foreign company without any UK bus operations wouldn't have an issue.

Trying to sell it off in chunks might have issues too. If D&G try to buy any more Midlands or Cheshire operations the CMA might take a look.

Spotted a single decker out of service on Rice Lane in Liverpool about 20 min ago. Must be doing some refreshers ahead of tomorrow

Well done to the drivers at Arriva for staying strong and united, the scale of the rejected pay offer was clear signal to Arriva of the strength of feeling, no doubt those who have left the union will be enjoying their rise

Bus movements back to depots. Before the strike started buses were moved around to facilitate engineering, MOT and refurbs. So they are being returned back to original depots ready for tomorrow. 10 from Green Lane and 5 from Speke all back to Bootle.

BBC North West mentioned in an interview with a union official that they’ve accepted what they’ve always asked for - £15 per hour

Not sure how true it is but it seems that all Depots will now be on the same rates as in the past at least Bolton and St Helens Depots were on different rates to each other
