Boris Wants to Scrap Bendy Buses in Favour of a "Modern Routemaster"

Boris does not give a fuck about London, he just rides a shit bike.

What has everyone got against Boris??

Yeah he's a lunatic, granted, but I reckon London under him would be interesting.

interesting?! the thought makes me shudder.

oh and oyster cards being fallible... all you need is another card with an RFID chip inside it (any security card etc that you use in the same way as an oyster is likely to be RFID), put it between the oyster reader and your oyster card in the wallet and the reader gets confused, which in turn leads to a confused bus driver, which results in free bus ride.

Or a bus driver that wont let you on the bus until your card works or you cough up 2 quid.

he was funny on Have I Got News For You

So was Angus Deayton, don't want him for mayor either.
Though maybe the price of a gram might come down.

haaaa, I'd much prefer Angus than Boris. Angus knows he's taking the piss; Boris just can't help offend people but because he's got a 'cute' blonde fringe. Our country is already run by Etonians and Oxford grads - we don't need one more.

nah, my mate does it all the time - if the bus driver just sits there grunting he takes the oyster card out the wallet and touches in.

too much hassle for me, ta.

All politicians are shit at their job, at least with boris you'd openly expect it from day one. Maybe I just take pleasure in chaos or something, but if I wasn't so achingly apathetic towards government i'd definitely vote boris.

that's what I hope will happen in the election... everyone who says they'll vote Boris won't actually bother.

I know a couple of people who are verrrry vocal about Boris, yet they aren't even registered to vote. I hope there's more out there!

Oyster cards also have other uses.
I take great pleasure in wearing the paint off mine most weekends.

Thank god for that, I guess. I don't think he'd be that bad, but then again I don't count because I don't care anyway. :)

They should make it more difficult to register... almost like a treasure hunt, haha

I will be voting for Ken. I mean, you've got Nerd Cop or Nazi Poster Boy or The Lizard King. No contest.

I'm registered and I'm voting for Boris. Tory till death.

Is it on your mantelpiece as a reminder of a mis-spent youth?

There's nothing mispent about having an undercut and voting Conservative.

You are a stain on the honour of teenagehood. You should have been out scrapping or trying to buy singles from the shop.

Does the fact that I used to have a Rezerection 'Z' shaved in either side of my head a number 1 shaved into the back redeem me somewhat??

Are you voting for Boris just cause he's a Tory? Or is it cause he forgot to vote about Crossrail, wants minimal amounts of affordable housing for London, wants to withdraw from the Kyoto agreement, is being used as a figurehead because he has mild 'celebrity' status (see Republicans using Arnie to win power), calls black people 'piccaninnies' and has had little involvement in London before this campaign.

Ooooh... Put the handbag down.

lol.

The librarian at my secondary school was a raving Torie and had a picture of herself with Thatcher on her desk. At the time I just thought she was rather odd; now I realise that she was running the place as her own little Torie propaganda machine, complete with cut-outs of every newspaper that praised the Tories on the wall.

Quite weird considering that my secondary school was in one of the most deprived and roughest areas of my town - hardly conservative, haha. I'm not surprised she left!

The figures that Boris has used to 'prove' that bendy buses are more dangerous are not reliable.
