The last paragraph is where you totally lose the argument. No London bus
user is going to approve of (let alone vote for) a system whereby a GBP1.35
fare for a single bus journey suddenly becomes GBP4 (or whatever).

No - and if we went for a "pure" Verbundtarif that is what would
happen. But I would retain the concession that "bus only travel is
cheaper". However, if, to allow free transfers, the bus fare
increased from gbp1.35 to, say, gbp1.80, which might be nearer what
it'd be outside London, that's not unreasonable.

At present, people requiring two or three buses to do a single journey
are subsidising those who use a single bus. That is wrong.
