The full Freedom Pass has the same entitlement age as the national bus
pass, which is the steadily-rising female retirement age (currently about
63).


OK, but that sliding scale was fixed some time ago, and isn't "receding" as claimed.


The scale is fixed, but the eligible age is increasing.


But according to a formula that was fixed some time ago, and hasn't
changed.

I think some people fear that it might be raised faster than that, but
it's not really an issue for Londoners.


A new formula, but is there anything in the Tory Manifesto about it?
