It's an interesting argument, which implies that there can be no conflict between public interests.

And charities don’t themselves have an impact on the local economy? I think in some ways being seen as a charity helps, because it comes with some implicit, if amorphous, good will. But ultimately if what you are interested in is the impact on...

The historic L&B wasn't all that good at serving local communities, which is why it closed. Parracombe station is in Parracombe, and Barnstaple Town station was pretty much as convenient for the main line as could be. All the other stations were...
