Lower Isle of Wight ferry prices for students over 19
For Myself, for example, living on the I.o.W and attending University in Southampton is a daily struggle, I study full time AND work full time, and I still can barely afford ferry travel. I think it's time for ferry company's to lower prices for students that are OVER 19. We would like a future too.
So it is nice that students get a discount on ferry travel, but, these are only students that are 19 or under. As a 20 year old student at Southampton University, I am fighting for all students whatever age to be able to travel for cheaper every day. I think everybody deserves to have a great opportunity in life, although unfortunately not every one can afford it.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
The price of ferry crossings is the responsibility of ferry companies, not the Government or Parliament.
If you would like the Government or Parliament to have the power to regulate ferry prices, you could start a new petition asking for that.
