Bring the age for a bus pass in all of England to 60, in line with London

Petition Details

In London, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland people receive a bus pass at age 60 yet everywhere else in England it is state retirement age. Please change this to 60 for all of the UK.

Additional Information

It is unfair and inexplicable that the people who live in England (excluding London) have to wait until state retirement age to benefit from a bus pass while the rest of the UK get one at age 60.
Surely as we try to decrease our emissions in this country it is a positive move to encourage the use of public transport wherever possible
