Dear John

Last week, I wrote to you about the bad deal for Londoners that the Mayor of London and Government struck to bailout TfL. This week I’m asking for your help <[link removed]>, in particular, to urgently reverse the unfair suspension of free travel for under 18s in London.

With young Londoners returning to school next week and many of them relying on free travel to get there, there’s no time to lose.

Transport Minister Grant Shapps said that special arrangements would be put in place for children most in need of free travel but unfortunately those arrangements still haven’t been made.

To avoid a disaster for the capital’s poorest families, I’ve written to the Minister <[link removed]> to ask him to urgently reverse his decision. Will you sign our petition in support too?

With your support, I hope we can get this decision reversed and that children can travel freely next week.

Kind regards

Siobhan Benita
Lib Dem Candidate for Mayor of London
