West Lothian locals have reportedly been sacked from their jobs after a 'poor' bus service repeatedly made them late in the morning - with old people also being left stranded.
Residents in Fauldhouse have hit out at the bus service that serves the village and have vented their frustration at Lothian Buses after the removal of the 281 Lothian Country service last year.
Members of the Fauldhouse Community Council have spoken to the Courier about the situation and said that it has become worse due to the 26, now run by McGill's, being "unreliable" and often "failing to turn up."
