But as soon as the trains go to shit and they have no fucking idea what’s going on they fall silent. Just when some information is fucking needed.

Every other country manages to work these out, maybe get some consultants in rather than have half your population and random British tourists caught up in the resultant carmageddon? Take a small amount of traffic and make the M25 look like a bloody picnic in comparison!

I lived in the Netherlands for a few years and regularly had to negotiate the Brussels ring road - nightmare every time. My own gripe is about airlines who cancel flights with no explanation and without even texting or emailing notification. Was picked up by looking at a flight tracker to check status.
