Just like J.R. Friend, (Opinion, February 5) I, too, have to get a bus before 9am one day a week.

At the moment it costs me £1.30, being a half fare saver to Peacehaven. After April 1, I shall have to pay £2.60.

My bus pass is renewable on March 16. It will therefore costs me £5 for 15 days' usage! It seems to me now we are a city conditions are getting worse, not better.
