In case you missed it: We've welcomed a new bill to remove the hereditary peers from the House of Lords.
The next step should be to remove the Lords Spiritual. There should be no automatic seats in Parliament for any religion. humanists.uk/2024/09/05/lord…

What might help buses be on time, are clear signs to encourage drivers ,to let them pull out. Where there are any, the stickers used by @StagecoachSE & @BrightonHoveBus, are very small and not visible at distance !!
It needs something more obvious

It's great to see that boosting buses and reforming rail are key priorities of the new Government, along with more integrated transport - this is crucial.

It's official. The UK has elected the most openly non-religious House of Commons in history, with 40% of MPs choosing to take the secular affirmation instead of a religious oath to God - including the PM and 50% of the Cabinet.

📰Quoted! Schemes like the £2 bus fare cap have helped to boost bus passenger numbers, but they're no substitute for long-term funding. Gov must do more to support local authorities to run and expand bus services.
