Break up the First Bus monopoly in Portsmouth.
In March, First Bus Portsmouth significantly increased prices without any clear notice. By operating a monopoly on many routes, they give working people little alternative but to pay their inflated fares. The Competition and Markets Authority should investigate and allow other firms to compete.
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:
We can only accept petitions which call for actions that are the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament. Bus services in Portsmouth are the responsibility of the local authority.
You could raise the issue with local councillors who represent you. You can find your local councillors here:
