Network Rail chief executive to turn down bonus

Quote:
Network Rail bosses, including chief executive Sir David Higgins, have said they will not accept bonuses this year.
They had come under growing political pressure to waive the potential six-figure awards.
Sir David, who was eligible for a bonus of up to £340,000, said in a statement that they would be donating the money to a rail safety charity.

I wonder how far this is going to spread?

Re: Network Rail chief executive to turn down bonus
I'm surprised he turned down the bonus.
How else is he supposed to afford the fares?

When will the government do the right thing and Re-Nationalize the Railways?
