They won't. That's what the EFL want.

Southern, not running any trains into London Victoria until January 10th, due to infections, and isolations due to Covid. Many other firms seem to be following suit. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2021/dec/30/southern-cancels-london-victoria-trains-for-two-weeks-over-covid -

I watched it last night, and noted that some of the questions had been used, verbatim, on other shows, then I noticed the same on Only Connect. -
At least they see plenty of goals, albeit at the wrong end. 50 league goals so far, but only 8 of their own.

Christmas day I was sending all my contacts a blessing for the day, and complaining that I was about to endure only my 2nd ever alcohol free (adult) Christmas, when a guy I used to work with, replied, asking for my address, 2 hours later he popped in with a litre of Famous Grouse. Nice. -
7 FARES 7.1.1 The council has set Hackney Carriage fares (Tariff) for journeys within its District. This sets the maximum fare that can be charged by Hackney Carriage Drivers. 7.1.2 There is no provision to set fares for Private Hire Vehicles. 7.1.3 Current fare rates are shown on the council website. The council’s official table of fares (tariff) must be displayed in Hackney Carriage Vehicles. 7.1.4 A taxi driver can charge more than the metered fare for journeys starting inside the licensing area and ending beyond the district only if this is agreed in advance. In the case of a pre-booked journey starting outside the district, the price / estimate should be given on request to the passenger, and, if so, recorded. 7.1.5 The council will review fare rates from time to time as necessary or in response to a bona fide request that has the backing of the trade in general. Proposed changes will be introduced in accordance with Section 65 of the Local Government (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 1976. Hackney Carriages, ie those you can wave down, have a fixed fare table, private hire cars can charge what they want, as long as they fare is disclosed at the time of booking.
