Johnson has said he wants to scrap the bendy buses and replace them with a 'modern version of a Routemaster'. This means that the old buses won't be coming back to the capital's streets en masse like you think they will.

I'm all for that. I'd be happy to see them back in any form. It's about time that London got her smile back.

It's pretty hard to keep things in order on a bendy bus. There's only one person working on them, and a bendy bus is twice as long as any other bus.

I think that there should be a new Routemaster designed for every century, from this point, on.

When in doubt, ask an autistic. Chances are, they're obsessed with what you need to know. :roll:

The plans probably won't happen, because of Val Shalcross. That person is such a b***h.
