Tardis Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 My mate just turned 60 years old. He does not get his free bus pass until 2013! That just is not fair! Other people got it at 60 years old! Why should the new people who reach 60 have to wait? There is plenty of spare places on the buses ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it has anything to do with spare seats on buses Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tardis Posted December 8, 2011 Author Share Posted December 8, 2011 Now what makes you think this is a made up story. It is NOT a made up story! The age is being stepped back eventually to retirement age! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balpin Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Just after my 60th early this year, I went into the bus sation office and said 'I have just turned 60 and come for my bus pass!' The woman replied, 'You'll have long wait then, you wont get it while next year' The reason is that as womens retirements ages are going up, so are all our benefits, So I dont get mine while 61, someone younger than me, pro rata. Blair and Cameron (andthat bloke inbetween, what was his name now, I forget;) ) should be taken out and shot, to paraphrase Jemery Clarkson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having directly benefitted from such services themselves beforehand. I'll have some of that, but pull up the drawbridge after me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
