Deadline for having your say on plans to close ticket offices at railway stations across Leics & Rutland has been extended. More below on why I think these plans are bad news for our area and will make people less likely to travel by train 👇

Rory Palmer: Last day to have your say in the (absurdly short) consultation on plans to close railway ticket offices at stations across Leics &amp; Rutland:
🚊Hinckley
🚊Melton Mowbray
🚊Oakham
🚊Loughborough
🚊Mkt Harborough
🚊Narborough
These plans should be scrapped.

💚 Total cross-party agreement amongst all elected councillors in Streatham and the MP that our ticket offices must remain open and fully staffed.

Cllr Martin Abrams🌹: Today #Streatham MP @BellRibeiroAddy and a cross-party grouping of Streatham Councillors wrote to @SouthernRailUK @TLRailUK CEO Patrick Verwer united in opposition to the proposals to close all three of Streatham's station ticket offices. #SaveTicketOffices https://t.co/xTTGXk1Abj

Re Oh, and to have a #TicketOffice with knowledgeable staff, short queues, and quick service for those taking the next train. #SaveTicketOffices

Across the city @McrLabour Councillors have been campaigning hard alongside @RMTunion local MPs like @Afzal4Gorton and @AndyBurnhamGM to #SaveTicketOffices - actions speak louder than words.
Let’s not play politics with peoples jobs and fight this ludicrous situation https://t.co/J4AGW5Wayc
