I dont disagree with free bus passes for old folk but that is what you get, free travel on buses.
You might as well say you could make a case for age discrimination, because you can't draw child benefit for your forty six year old child.



Everyone is entitled to a bus pass, if you're lucky enough to reach pensionable age, after paying tax all your life into the pot that funds it.
