Amazing that only a few seconds after claiming he is honest, he claims to have introduced the freedom pass.
The freedom pass was created in 1973. At some point the age limit was increased from 60 to 66. When Johnson was mayor, he reduced the age for the Oyster equiv of the freedom pass from 66 back to 60 and possibly increased the hours in which it can be used.
So in other words, he did not create the freedom pass. He has never changed anything with the freedom pass. Another lie.
Irrespective of that, he’s suggesting that travelling around on buses for free to keep warm is a) a good idea and b) something he can claim credit for. Talk about being tone deaf to the needs of the electorate.
