The Labour Government

[mosssideblue]

You're boring me now, don't ask a question if you don't like the answer. The poster was wrong and so were you jumping in. Put me on ignore if your ego is so delicate. I didnt ask people to stick up for Labour like sycophantic simpletons. Own the shit you post or put everyone with a brain cell on ignore.
You and the chuckle brothers can then enjoy your dishonest echo chamber.

Ttfn.

I hope you get the help you clearly need

It is a lot, especially if you’re struggling or on a lower income.

Can I ask why you were spending £5 for a day return, instead of just getting a weekly ticket. It was a few years ago now, but it was around £11 for a megarider in about 2011 when I used to get the bus regularly

I used different forms of transport dependent on working patterns, sometimes train, bus or car.

Never heard of a mega-rider but does sound like the bus I’d get on from Salisbury that made you feel ill when you got off. Wow, can those bus drivers drive!

There needs to be "something" in tomorrow's budget for working people.
Life as a single working person (particularly if young) is getting horrendous. There's little way out of not living with parents, and mental health issues (especially for young men, who seem to have been marginalised and even openly mocked in recent years) needs to be addressed.
Here's hoping, but I understand it's a long haul.

Above inflation rise in minimum wage.

Its already been leaked the living wage is getting an above inflation pay rise plus they are abolishing the banding so the youngsters are not just cheap labour.

For the rest its not all going to be fixed in the first budget 3 months after the GE

Certainly a start, but there needs to be a lot more.
It's not fair at all.
