0bserver Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 On 3/22/2022 at 2:47 PM, Roger Mexico said: It's pretty much complete fantasy stuff. £10 per head (not £100) in direct income is just about plausible in terms of transportation, train tickets, MNH entries and so on (if they all took the trips, which you can bet they didn't) but that doesn't include the fact that these things would also have costs to government as well, even if you're just looking at marginal costs. The £75 per head economic benefit is just fantasy stuff however, no doubt based on some bonkers calculation where every £2 fridge magnet is somehow multiplied up until you get the the figure they want to see. Like practically everything else the DfE does this is all just an excuse for bullshit merchants to prance around feeling important. It's all utter BS. They drive them round on Government owned buses that lose money to take them to the Government owned loss-making heritage railways and perhaps stop at one of the Government owned heritage sites that lose money hand over fist. The only people who gain from this is civil servants within DfE who get paid to dream this shit up. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get the nags I backed at Cheltenham to pull it...one too scared to even turn up, one who likes to run backwards and one that got shot (think they shot the jockey as well). 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
