The Labour Party analysed more than 50 rail routes (Yui Mok/PA)
Some commuters face forking out more than £50 a day more for train travel if they use new flexible tickets, according to analysis by the Labour Party.
The tickets, which went on sale last week, allow travel in England on any eight days in a 28-day period.
The Government claimed the tickets match “modern working habits” and can save passengers who commute two or three times a week “hundreds of pounds”.
It is staggering that (ministers) are now lauding a scheme which in fact makes it more expensive for many people and hoping nobody notices
