On the Metro it's only £1.80 with a Pop Card which everyone has access to. If people choose not to get one, that's their choice but it's only fair that there's discounted fares for those using a smart card since there's benefits of doing so.
If GoNorthEast and Stagecoach want to come to the 21st century and offer some form of tap on/tap off with discounted fares I'm sure they'd be welcomed by most bar the 'cash is king' numpties.
it's the Pelaw Inn, presumably it was an "inn" when the fare stages were created (about 50 years ago if Shell-Mex was correct at the time!)
