[Margaret Pilkington]

Yes Bernard, I am entitled to it, but I am saying that there are other ways around the thorny problem of the cost of concessionary fares on public transport.
I know that the fares still have to be paid for by someone......but I really do believe that a lifetime in full employment and the fact that I still pay tax on my pension should entitle me to something......but when you pull out your bus pass and get on the bus for free, the younger passengers look at you like you are stealing something from them.

It would also be helpful if the passes related to other forms of transport like trams and trains.....and again I would be willing to pay half fare
