Now it is remembered so fondly by so many people and finished debt free and the legacy projects are very well used.
There are no legacy projects to this bid. That's one of the main reasons people against the bid feel the way they do. It was my number 1 problem with this bid until the last week events showed the BidCo to be largely inept.
