And Network Rail should get tough and recover all the compensation it pays out for bridge bashes too

I guess the difficulty there is that they are generally accidental?

Not driving with due care and attention (not observing road signs and knowing the height of your vehicle)?

Are there prosecutions when this happens? It's an interesting point.

Assume they claim from the vehicles insurers and then it’s up to the insurers whether they recover for negligence.

From the Metro

Quote
Ryanair is making a huge change to its 2025 schedule, and it’s not good news for the more than 17 million Brits who love a holiday to Spain.

Due to ‘unjustified’ price hikes, the airline will be scrapping or reducing routes to seven Spanish destinations.

It will be stopping all flights to and from:
    Jerez (Cádiz)
    Vallodolid
It will also reduce flights in and out of:
    Vigo
    Santiago de Compostela
    Zaragoza
    Santander
    Asturias

Lots more explanation of the spat between Ryanair and Aena, Spain’s state-controlled airport operator.   The reasons for scrapping the flights may be wrong, but perhaps this might push at least a few people to look at rail or ferry alternatives.

Nothing to do with the planned 100 per cent tax on those residents living outside the EU» (European Union - about) who would like to buy a property in Spain.

So you are right! Nothing to do with that proposed tax.

Huge increases from the airport operator for landing and departure fees.

Ryanair have also announced a large number of new routes this summer
