I asked if it was so essential why it was withdrawn in 2017 and never received a response.

I drove the 118/119 regularly in its final few years and it was often busy.

I also asked why the Moreton Circulars needed such a high frequency at night 7 days a week when the majority of the routes are within walking distance of the 423 (when the likes of Beechwood which isn't in walking distance of a route gets nothing) to be fobbed off with a "we try to have everywhere within x meters walking distance of a bus route" whilst ignoring the original point I was making.

All ran by an ego obsessed "metro mayor" - just look at Merseyrails 777 rollout - constant issues since day 1 none of which have been resolved but being unreliably rolled out anyway so Rotheram can pose for his photos.

You won't get proper responses from Merseytravel as their staff haven't the braincells to think for themselves or act upon anything. There's so much that I could say about Merseytravel but I shall refrain as it would likely be moderated. It's funny though that when you criticise their staff, they reply back crying that you are calling them out for their incompetence. This is what you get though when you have so many people in an authority who either want to make a name for themselves, want to do no work and cream off silly wages from taxpayers, or just braindead people who are in a job solely because of who they know, not what they know.

Merseysides public transport will NEVER reach a half decent level while the current bunch of twits are managing it. They all know they are unsackable and politicians/councillors refuse to say a bad word about Merseytravel because it's all Labour propping up Labour, propping up other socialists and sadly many in Merseyside refuse to acknowledge it. Look at all of the corruption with Joe Anderson and yet people still think he was a good man and Labour can be trusted. People without braincells shouldn't be able to vote, then and only then will politics and public authorities in Merseyside be better ran as right now politicians are relying on peoples sheep like abilities and ignorance, in a bid to get back into power. 'Look at what we are promising, not at our past record'
