I feel unusually annoyed about this... They are some of the best
buses ever to be used in London or anywhere else, in my controversial
opinion.


I agree entirely. I think it is odd and very wrong that one man's
fatwa could get rid of them.


Well, it was one of his clearest manifesto commitments, so it's fair to
assume at least some of his voters also approved of the idea.



Perhaps the swing voters who gave Boris victory are not bus users?

To be honest, I cannot imagine that many bus users would have voted
for him, but many car drivers will have been seduced by his promises
to remove Bendy Buses from London's roads and to abandon the western
extension of the Congestion Charge zone.
