I'm afraid most transport companies made losses in 2020 and 2021 due to huge drops in passenger revenue during COVID.

The problem is the unions want an annual pay increase based on inflation when inflation is high and based on profit levels when inflation is low.

I recall a number of years back a union agreed with Stagecoach Manchester 4% one year and 0% the next, instead of 2% the proposed each year. Then when the next year came around they started arguing Stagecoach were greedy for freezing their members pay.
