Can't drive through them, can't park on them etc.

Agree with the general sentiment above. Me and all my friends have all had bad cold recently. Like others I suspect it's either covid 19 or rsv or another coronavirus. I don't think it's flu or bird flu luckily. Also thanking the good Lord it isn't a winter vomiting bug!!

I cycled that way recently (actually went on to the Perry Vale industrial estate) and went through Peckham Rye / Nunhead / Crofton Park / Ladywell Fields. It brings you out by Catford Bridge station. It was quite residential and quite pleasant. You could make it greener on foot going through Camberwell New Cemetery rather than Nunhead

I think veggie burgers are about to be banned?

You ignore the fact that passengers have to get off and wait another 5.9 minutes for the next bus. Might as well just have buses that go further at longer intervals. Perfect efficiency for bus routes isn't a more noble aim than the convenience of passengers using buses. And none of the suggestions I made would result in a bus route doubling from 1 hour to two hours.

Yes, because fewer people use them. They'll just get in their cars instead.

Lol, could you possibly be any more pompous??

Reminds of Toast ED. I miss that place. I've not been into the bakery that replaced it which for some reason doesn't appeal. It seems to be doing well though. Definitely not toast too.

Extending those routes would cost about £450k per annum per route initially. So £10m would pay for it for 7 or so years, by which time the extensions might pay for themselves by being more useful.

Would rather they spent on there being more buses going to more useful places. Put the 40 back to the London Bridge route and extend it up to Islington. Have a bus that goes down Lordship Lane and turns right on to the South Circular towards Clapham. Extend the 176 up to Regent's Park. Extend the 185 up to Sloane Square. F**k tinkering around the edges with bus lanes and shelters - get some proper changes made with bus routes for the people.

Fair enough, maybe there is more to it then.

It looks to me like it's one person out of hundreds. I'm not convinced.

Exactly the point!!!

the 1.8 million unemployed Brits could do the work that Brits won't do. Make minimum wage higher than the maximum benefits payments. So it's more profitable to be in work than it is to be unemployed. anyway, round 2 today of Labour's attack on immigration. This one is reminiscent of their "hostile environment" that Liam Byrne created in 2007.

He's always been clear he'd rather be elsewhere than Westminster: https://www.thecanary.co/uk/analysis/2024/06/18/starmer-davos-interview/ "Westminster is too constrained. It’s closed and we’re not having meaning. Once you get out of Westminster whether it’s Davos or anywhere else, you actually engage with people that you can see working with in the future. Westminster is just a tribal shouting place." That's who he is.
