Petition Get rid of the concession bus pass scheme, go back to the reduced fare.

As a transport worker, you get to see how heavily abused this scheme is. It costs the Country billions it just doesn't have.
One stop riders, when before they would have walked. Many go out to pubs every night of the week, if they can afford the alcohol they can afford the bus fare.
There have been so many disability concessions issued, that you can get one for almost anything now, overweight, re-hab etc. This is not disability! Many a times they run faster than Linford Christie to catch the bus.
It is important to remember that in this current financial climate a: the country cannot afford it & b: the older generation have greater savings & are better off than most of us.
