Are They Getting Rid of Oyster?! :'(

Right. So how would you feel if your education plans were ****ed up by this government because you now have to somehow find a way to afford travel costs?

God gave you feet, walk. In year 12 I had to walk from home to college everyday for a month while the morons at TFL sorted out my application, a total of 4.5 miles each way. But you know what? I realised I had a spine and manned up. If education is that important then you man up as well.

1 - Somehow I doubt it. A three hour walk each day?

2 - My post was more about the general point about money being taken away, so applies to people who will no longer get EMA, who certainly cannot walk to college (I'd like to see you walk over 20 miles each day).

3 hours? Please, 2 hours 20 mins tops. It's good exercise and I intergrated into my fitness regime. I wore trainers and carried my school shoes in my rucksack, changing when I arrived and leaved school. You see I had no choice, being there isn't a money tree in my back garden. It was walk or not go.
Anyway EMA and free Osyter are not a god given right, people have survived long before them and will continue surviving long after, just man up and stop bitching.
Anyway why on earth do you go to a college 10 miles away? Most population areas in the UK are barely even 10 miles long, either North to South or East to West, and if they are they'd have multiple colleges.

But our areas are different/? in London you need buses SO much more..
i do feel privilaged but like i say our area isnt the same.we need oysters much more for travel.

I know this is such an old thread but my college is 14 miles away, I'm not going to walk there.
