it might in the future, but no increase to £3 has been announced. The post i replied to said 'you may have read fares in England are rising to £3 but that does not apply to london.'
I am pointing out no 'outside london' price increase has been announce.
The announcement is about the price cap. The price cap does apply to london as well as the rest of England.
But we are moving off topic, mods may want to see if we move that discussion tothe uk forum
