Dr Roz Savage

Liberal Democrat — South Cotswolds

Speaking in the House of Commons on 2 June 2025

Debate

Bus Services (No. 2) Bill [Lords]

Contribution

Does my hon. Friend agree that in rural constituencies like mine, bus routes are an absolute lifeline and a route out of poverty? When the 84 and 85 bus route was cut last year, it meant not only that people could not get to medical appointments or to work, but that students had to drop out of the college courses that would have enabled them to escape from poverty. Does my hon. Friend agree that we need to make sure that this Bill enables an affordable, joined-up and genuinely useful rural transport network?
