Cause it happens every January as was stated in a press release about it. Mark it in your calendar for next year so you don't make another stupid comment.

I thought one of the Greens' election promises was to put a freeze on bus fares.

QuoteIn addition, the Greens commit to freezing public transport fares so there will be no cost increases for anyone using public transport over the course of the next term of the Legislative Assembly.

It would depend what's in the new Labour-Greens agreement. But I suspect this fare increase was already in the pipeline from the 2016-17 Budget
