Keir Starmer confirms 2 bus fare cap will be hiked to 3
Briefly

Sir Keir Starmer emphasized the necessary cap increase on bus fares, stating, 'That's why I'm able to say to you this morning that in the Budget we will announce there will be a 3 cap on bus fares to the end of 2025 because I know how important it is.' This highlights the government's recognition of the financial strain on communities reliant on public transport.
In addressing public financing challenges, Starmer criticized the previous Conservative government, saying, 'They only funded 2 bus fares until the end of 2024,' which reflects the Labour government's commitment to financial stability for essential services.
