The poor and working class rely on buses. The government should care that some people do use more than one bus for work.So that is £8 on average, different bus companies have their rules and tickets.

Labour said they will not tax the working people, so what do they do? Tax working people.

Luxembourg public transport is fully funded by the tax payers and you just hop on and off the trams, trains or buses. Not forgetting they are spotless.

When was inflation raised to 50%?

Remember 15 min cities are looming and if you want to leave you will have to show papers. This will include to see your GP.

Bus passes will end in the next few years or so.

Starmer is doing the WEF bidding.

I love this comment on the Daily Mail.

Lol, can't drive it's filthy and we will charge a fortune in taxes and fuel duties, so u think ok ill get the bus now that is 50 percent more, taxes are higer, food costs are massive, energy bills massive, all starmer wants is more carbon zero and more hotels for boat people, more aid to other places. It's disgusting nothing ever works, can't get appointment at Dr's or dentist. Think people need to wake up

You mentioned Luxembourg - excellent/free public transport. But, for example, health care isn't free there; €58 to see a doctor, and many other charges which aren't applicable here - like those for ambulances.

The population of Luxembourg is 1% that of the United Kingdom.

It's not free here either, it comes out of our taxes. The government don't have their own money.

So GM what would you prefer? Higher taxation or a private health service and expensive insurance and Astronomical medical bills? And as we already know with the trains, post office.....private doesn't mean better than public.

I prefer the latter.

Next question.
