Aren't the family behind Stagecoach all mad evangelical Christians (as well as anti union c*nts)?

It's probably going to be smuggling 'orphan' kids to be adopted by god botherers isn't it.

Another case of well-meaning uber-rich being taken advantage of by the same villainous poors that they had tried to help? When will society deal with this ongoing scandal etc etc etc etc

They are a pair of cunts. Their business model was predatory and exploitative.

Move into a town, flood the place with busses at a lower fare than the existing services, causing the existing services to fail, then ramping up fares.
