that doesn't tally with any information i can find , but your probly right. why would the government get involved in a private company dispute?

Because the private companies are only on fixed fee management contracts now. All costs are borne by government and all revenue goes to government. I'd agree with you if we still had the old style franchises, but these post covid management contracts are very different.

i bow to your knowledge but even the union leaders seem to be saying the billions are going to the franchise holders not the government
