New Jersey’s NJ Transit is currently planning to charge more than $100 for return rail tickets from New York’s Pennsylvania Station to MetLife Stadium for FIFA World Cup games. According to people familiar with the plans, who asked to remain anonymous in order to protect relationships, a return ticket purchased via NJ Transit, New Jersey’s transportation provider, is currently modelled for more than a seven-fold increase from its usual prices during the World Cup this summer. The 18-mile rail journey, which includes a stop at Secaucus station, ordinarily costs $12.90 for a return ticket — the same pricing for the FIFA Club World Cup final last summer. The new special event pricing, however, is due to come into effect for the World Cup and is currently due to be over $100. 📝 @AdamCrafton_ 🔗 nyti.ms/425RIfk

The Union of 1707 is portrayed by the coloniser as civilising gift to a Vile Spot, Butcher Cumberland's name for Scotland. In fact Scotland had a sophisticated enlightened constitution, a school in every parish, five universities, and an active trading relationships with Europe.
