How is it right we have free bus passes for the elderly to get to bingo but not children and 16-18 year olds to get to school? Councils across the country cutting school bus provision expecting parents to foot the bill at £1,000s per child per year. #austerity #education

@LDpennyo .@LDpennyo: "If the Conservatives were serious about 'learning lessons', they would be acknowledging that the policy itself is not fit for purpose. It's time for the council to actually listen, rather than ignoring concerns like they did during the original consultation."

.@LDpennyo "It's such a shame that this initial review will only focus on the implementation of the policy, rather than the obvious flaws in the policy itself. It just feels like the real issues are being pushed further into the long-grass." tinyurl.com/y3nevw86

If the Tories want to minimise the impact of their cuts on schools and families, and avoid this from happening each and every summer, then they need to do more than paper over the cracks and look to fundamentally change the policy.

'Will #Suffolk school transport review result in changes to the policy?' @jackabbott90: "The Tories have to be prepared to make significant changes to their terrible policy, otherwise they will just be paying lip service." eadt.co.uk/news/suffolk-s…

Encouraging to hear there will be a review of the disastrous #SchoolTransport policy @CllrMaryEvans @HicksCllr please can you outline 1)this covers the policy as well as the process and 2)how you will ensure the experiences of parents are properly heard and taken into account?

@BusSuffolk @suffolkcc @HicksCllr Absolutely! Please don't go on about choice either and look at the guidance about breaking established links between schools as well as keeping siblings together and dont be so punitive against parents and their children. I know the policy will be reviewed now but it was so cruel

So @jackabbott90 caught the school bus as a boy in rural Suffolk. Wonder how many of the Conservative councillors responsible for the #SchoolTransport policy actually did the same? Representation matters

🚌✂️ After a summer of chaos, we are proposing three common sense changes to a deeply flawed policy. All three issues were brought up repeatedly during consultation but fell on deaf ears. The Conservatives have the chance to make amends by backing the proposals today.
Jack Abbott MP@jackabbott90

The home-to-school transport consultation may have ended this week but the fight for the right outcome for #Suffolk continues. Take a look back at the incredible coverage that this campaign has received so far, generating a number of headlines and front pages 👇

📻🚌✂️ Good to hear @750sumo on @BBCSuffolk talk about the common sense proposals we have put forward to help ease some of the worst effects of school bus cuts in #Suffolk. Let's hope Tory Cllrs are listening to parents like him. Listen from 1:17:28 👇 bbc.co.uk/programmes/p07…

But the apology for a poor implementation of the school transport policy doesn’t go far enough. The apology needs to be given for implementing a POOR policy in the first place!
Tristan Wood@750sumo

@ChairSCC at last an apology, shame it wasn't from Mr Jones!!

SCC school travel policy has been a disaster for families, causing anxiety and disruption to schooling for many children. It's a backward step for sustainable transport too, school buses keep cars off the road and reduce families needing to make multiple journeys.
Suffolk Green, Lib Dem & Independent Group@SuffolkGLI

We fully support this call for changes to @suffolkcc's terrible new school transport policy. The implementation of this policy has been an unmitigated disaster, and the impact on rural families has been appalling. eadt.co.uk/news/suffolk-c…
