At a debate in Parliament on Tuesday they called for the elderly to pay a flat fare of up to £1 for each journey – undermining Dave’s pledge not to scrap the popular concession.
Hard enough times for our pensioners as their pensions fall in value and any meagre savings they may have yield little or no return. Hard enough for them as the price of keeping warm rockets, along with food prices.
Never mind all that - the Tories rarely use buses, after all.
Do your worst, Dave. Those True Blue Tory seats in the shires may not be quite so keen to vote you in next time round...
It really is getting too much Canny(DC). I signed your NHS petition and got a lovely acknowledgement and even the results later,so many thanks.
Now this is just a kick in the teeth and I can feel even more disaffected emails to Dave because of this.
Any lobby groups/petitions on this one?
"We're all in this together" is the biggest lie since "British jobs for British workers(because how the fuck does one decide who is British?) and I am mightily peed off by this latest attack on the elderly whilst the Crystal Drinkers clink glasses at their latest 75Billion windfall.
People were told that this would happen if the Tories got in.

Mmmhhh? Not as stupid as the ones who voted labour it seems because the cuts they had lined up had they won GE are in motion
