Concessionary Bus Pass reform

RE: Concessionary Bus Pass reform
On the subject of bringing up the OAP pass age - I see no reason why it shouldn't be brought up in line with the standard retirement age. If the retirement age is slowly being brought up (probably about 90 by the time half of us get there!) and most people under that age are still in employment, then I see no reason why the age for pass eligibility shouldnt be raised either. The way I see it if somebody is working for a living and taking home pay, then why should the taxpayer fund free travel for them in this age where there is an empty pot of money and everything is being cut back.
