Funnily enough, the bus service has coped with fares changes in the
past. Mainly every 12 months before Ken was elected.


Yes but a rise of 30p on a 70p fare (almost 43%) is you have to admit it
quite huge. Let's hope the advertising is geared towards encouraging the
use of pre-paid tickets in their various formats...


It _is_ enormous.

I'd expect that the pre-paid tickets to be the key marketing products
for bus travel, both Savers and Oyster.
