FREE BUS PASS THREAT.

I have already been contacted by Oscott residents concerned about proposals by the Conservative/ liberal Democrat Government to scrap the free bus pass for 60 year old's and to put the age up to 65.
This will if it happens effect a number of Oscott Residents approaching the age of 60. I will be doing what I can to try and warn people of the consequences and hope the government will honour their pre -election pledges and resist this move. At present it is only in a white paper so
I would advice any one concerned about this awful and un- needed proposal to contact their MPS.

There may be those who say the old Labour Government were considering the same, but the time scales were different by a number of years.
It would be a backward step by who decided to do this.
