Today Ken Livingstone launched his alternative fares package for London.
Ken has promised to cut fares on the bus and the tube by 5% after taking office, and freeze them thereafter.
This is in stark contrast to Boris Johnson’s recent admission that, even after raising bus fares by a whopping 56% since taking office, his plan is for fares to continue to rise by 2% above inflation every year for the next twenty years.
Ken is offering Londoners a clear alternative.
