Rod Stewart tell us that doing things for free is very naughty

Some people believe in asking large coporations for cheap services so that there is less profit made. Whilst we understand that this is a desirable goal we go one step further to ask for a cooperative way of living, where no profit is produced. Although there are potential alternatives to using buses such as cycling. realistically people need effective public transport that is environmentally friendly and better than running individual cars. Corporations are exploiting our needs

What a wonderful idea! Is there going to be more?

This could be extended into many other areas of life, so that increasingly more people will realize that there is another way of doing things...

What a great Idea and good enough to have that tosser Rod Stewat getting his knickers wound up it seems?

What is all of this nonsense? The very idea that "things" could be done or even seen to be done "differently" to the Status Quo is incredibly weird and, at best, puerile.

Why dont these "free bus" people get a job and get a wash?

And I think to myself........."What a wonderful world".......

(Yeah........right).

Rebel Clowns Reimburse Unfare Paying Passengers
Sheffield Rebel Clowns are exhausted by car pollution. Greenhouse gases are getting up our red noses. We are hot under our collective collars. The soles of our big shoes are wearing thin. We are running for the buses. We are tendering the correct change. We all need Daily Planet Savers. We have done our homework on the backseats and now we are ringing the bell of history. The next stop is lower bus fares. We are telling the bosses of First Transport where to get off. As Passengers we are standing together to ridicule these Grossly Unfares. So today we are reimbursing Unfare Paying Passengers to compensate them for paying through the nose for bus journeys.
Turn the tables of time
It is a mad world when to travel for 3 stops on a Sheffield bus costs £1.50. You can fly to Spain for less than that now! There is no more money in our oversized pockets. Remember a couple of decades ago, you could go anywhere on a bus in Sheffield for two pence. We are campaigning for a return ticket to those days. Back to the future for buses.
First Transport
is grabbing a whopping £93m profit while the penniless have to curb their trips out for they can no longer afford the bus. We are pushing the buttons to stop the unfare increases. Replace these tyred squeelers with Transport cooperatives.
Deregulation
means that on profitable routes there’s lots of buses, on ones that don’t make a mint there are none. Buses are disappearing from some routes. This has to be a return journey. Buses must be freed from the roots of this chaos. Reregulate the buses. More bums on doubleseats means cleaner safer, friendly streets.
Sheffield Metropolitan Council
complains that they cannot do anything to change the state of the buses until 2007. We need to Wipe the windscreens of these limited visionaries.
Cars choke the streets.
Drivers grimace gridlocked in frustration. Crying out for a sane transport solution. We are not coughing up any more. We must cast aside our polluting old bangers. We need more buses. We need to encourage more people onto buses so we can all breathe more easily.
Catastrophic Global Climate Change
is upon us. The world is warming. Clowns weep and our tears mingle with the melting polar ice. We love to frolic at the seaside but we don’t want Sheffield to be on the coast. We are the Conductors of all Unfare Paying Passengers in Sheffield and We urge our fellow travellers to bellylaugh at these monstrous prices. Fart on these fares. Tickle the busdrivers to strike and together we can transform our.public transport.
