Stop the bulk buying of tickets sold on above face value or cap resale tickets
Honour their 2024 manifesto pledge to stop ticket touts fleecing fans by introducing legislation to stop bulk buying tickets for onward sale and cap resale values for live events to protect fans.
Secondary sales are extortionate with no guarantee the tickets will be valid at entry. Genuine fans are being priced out. It hurts the music industry as it can also mean empty seats at venues if not sold on and knock on effect on merchandise and food and drinks for the venue.
