It is good news that the economy grew in July, and let's be honest, it has been against a very difficult and very challenging international backdrop.

I know this will be frustrating for passengers and I’m sorry. Please check with your airline for latest advice.

Not only are we lowering costs for the summer, the £2 bus fare cap will help all passengers get to where they need to for less.

We'll start getting rid of the dreaded 'ironing board seats' so passengers can enjoy comfier, more pleasant journeys on some of Britain's busiest commuter routes.
