Public

Had to cancel my plans to attend #DeclarativeAmsterdam in person on short notice 🙁. Hotel, full refund. Eurostar, full refund. Great Western Rail? Of the £180 fare, £12 was deemed refundable (???). They charged a £5 processing fee to do it. So I got almost, but not quite, 4% of my money back. Public infrastructure should not be in private hands and it should be run for the public.
