Mr Paul Kohler

Liberal Democrat — Wimbledon

Speaking in the House of Commons on 10 September 2025

Debate

Bus Services (No. 2) Bill [Lords]

Contribution

Those are indeed the issues that we need to address and that are not addressed at the moment—my hon. Friend is absolutely right. The poorest, who use buses the most, are already struggling with the cost of living crisis. No amount of spin can hide the fact that the Government’s decisions represents a huge fare increase, despite the Prime Minister taking to social media last month to proclaim that he was putting working people first, and that this fare rise would “cut costs” for working families. No, it will not.
