Bring back the Routemaster, or else I won't go to London!

I would agree with you if I didn't have a friend in a wheelchair to whom Routemasters are completely inaccessible.
Even if there was 1 Routemaster in every 4 buses it would be a problem if it's a broiling hot/freezing cold day, I am standing with my friend sitting in her wheelchair, a Routemaster rolls up. You get "Sorry, you'll have to wait 15 minutes for thenext bus (which has a ramp and hydraulic tyres) to get your friend on board.
Routemasters are iconic and lovely for Londoners (and non-Londoners) but hell for the physically disabled.
