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



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.

City, County, State and Federal Politicians-

1) Should have their wages cut by 2/3.
2) Be limited to a maximum of 2 terms-no exceptions.
3) Have all their records accessible for public viewing.
4) Be forbidden from holding stock shares of any company.
5) Be more open to the public in which they represent.
6) Be subject to stiffer penalties for any/all crimes committed. (No more club fed).

That's all I can think of at the moment. More may come in time.
