Petition for Freedom Pass on change.org

Postby judithhoward » Fri Oct 23, 2020 5:39 pm

No doubt you are aware from the News that the govt. is trying to force Tfl to deprive London pensioners of our Freedom Pass.  Many older local residents will be affected (and even the younger ones have parents and grandparents who will doubtless be very worried, as I am!)

I have started a petition on Change.org, , and invite you and your families to sign it and circulate it as widely as possible. 

I am also asking people to write to their MP, and to Grant Shapps at transportsecretary@dft.gov.uk

Time is short, as they want to make a decision next week!

The petition link is:  http://chng.it/6BhBNJmTImageSign the Petition

Many thanks,

Why not means test it, or make it taxable?  Then those able to afford it and not needing to worry would contribute.  After all, we are all in this together - aren't we?
