BUS FARES CAPPED £2 UNTIL END OF MARCH

Hi, it’s Deborah and Euzi Bus companies will not be able to charge more than £2 for a single journey with changes brought in from this month until the end of March.

VOTER ID AT ELECTION

Hi, it’s Deborah and Euzi The Elections Act 2022 requires anyone turning up to vote at polling stations to now bring photo ID with them, coming into effect ahead of May's local elections. It's after concerns were recently raised about election fraud - despite only 34 reports of voter fraud throughout 2019 when the UK last held a general election. But the new law has been criticised by the Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee which has warned Black, transgender and disabled voters will be hit hardest by this. #legaladvicefordivorcematters #legaladviceforlandlordandtenantmatters #legaladviceforemploymentmatters #mackenziefriend #helpingyoutopreparetoattendatcourt #affordablelawforyou #bespokelegaladvice
