A "discount" compared with cash fares they've increased to coerce you
to use Oyster? No thanks.

A quid for a bus fare is cheaper than most other cities in the UK, so
that at least is a discount. Two quid, the price of a paper ticket
(not seen one sold in ages), is nearer the mark for a journey of
substantial length. (It's 1.70 in MK, for example, and I believe
that's at the low end).

(I know it's going up to 1.20 next year, but I expect the MK fare will
probably go to 1.80 or 1.90 before too long.)

Has anyone noticed, incidentally, that the paper One Day Bus Pass is
being / has already been abolished in favour of Oyster?
