If you under 18 you should be allowed to stay on the bus without an Oyster card

Rejected 14 signatures

What the petition asks

If you have an Oyster card and it’s free to get onto a bus it doesn’t make a difference if you don’t have an oyster as it’s free anyway.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.

This would be a decision for Transport for London and not the UK Government or Parliament.
