New Bus for London

[lincaorain]

wow, so what difference?

[gowdridge]

and it`ll still be driven by wankers, so no change really

[jackgreaves18]

he may be a filthy fucking tory but i do believe that boris genuinely cares about london

[HODDESDON1]

still no sign of this boris. fucking tory liar

[sedwarg]

@HODDESDON1 vote Tory

[skillagelfc98]

2 days after lauching it will be called the graffiti buss

[celebratingfantasy]

yea London buses are free to ride, and there is blowjob services as well in the new buses..

[rgolianeh]

@celebratingfantasy Yes the free blowjob will be when you idiot put mine into yours.

[celebratingfantasy]

@rgolianeh The blowjob when your mum suck my juicy dick, you fucking asshole

[mquiroz90]

@togce U may say that time to move it to newer types

[xbdanny]

Does anyone know how the rear hop on hop off system would work as regards to paying etc.? THANKS :)

[MajorDiarriah]

@xbdanny I think London buses are free to ride.

[xbdanny]

@MajorDiarriah no they're not free to ride, I live in London. You either swipe your card or pay for a ticket, I'm just wondering how that will happen at the rear of the bus - unless you can only get off or swipe your card at the end.

[sweetypie000]

They got rid of the last one because of health and safety but it must have affected tourism so much that they are launching them again. It's all for show. Look at that bike scheme - novice riders can just jump on one, without a helpet (because that would be a strategical nightmare to provide for people so it's 'forgotten about and accepted') and get squashed on londons dreadfully dangerous roads

Money talks in this city.

I hope he dosent get voted in again, I hope people find a brain

[MrConnolly25]

Yeah where life is not about worrying for kids being stabbed on the streets lol.Where people tend to live with a little more humility.We northerners would'nt have Boris cleaning the streets never mind voting him into power & watching him pass eccentric plans when we are in the midst of economic meltdown where millions of people are struggling to make enough money to feed their families.Imagine if Northerners decided to bring back steam trains at the taxpayers expense lol.

[RickySpurs1]

Geesh!Fuck that.

[welcome567]

This is one of the strangest looking buses I've ever seen - in fact I think it is quite ugly. What is wrong with the buses London has now? The old Routemaster design, which was also used throughout the UK, might have been a symbol of London but it couldn't last forever. This new design is clearly trying to embody something of that but like the resurrected Beetle and Mini, it doesn't really work and just looks querky.

[1227leochin]

looks good, but doesn't look safe..

[ABBAS73654]

@BankShotProductions1 Fuck All Paki's

[hamzah118]

watch how people are gonna start sneaking through the back!

[sweetypie000]

@hamzah118 Yes, and watch how some black stabs up the indian conductor when he dosen;t want to pay for his ticket. It will happen, you can bet on that

[Steve10578]

@hamzah118 - During the video they mentioned the back door would only be open when a conductor is present.

[rgolianeh]

@Steve10578 So what? You live in the dream land also?

[Steve10578]

@rgolianeh - Correct who gives a shit about a door, I don't give a shit about buses either. Overpriced fares and cramped conditions. If they wanted to design a new bus they should have made triple deckers. Obviously they wouldn't be able to go on routes with low bridges though. Oh and air conditioning would be nice being it's the 21st century. As no bus has them yet. Air conditioning on the underground would be nice too. The only reason London is getting this new bus and new trains? TheOlympics

[PhantomAct]

Now during the Winter, u will get cold air from that freakin backdoor.

[Steve10578]

@PhantomAct - I can remember travelling on routemasters which has no door and I didn't feel much difference really in winter.

[DARKR3APZ]

2012 them buses was on the news not along ago

[togce]

old ones looked so much better

[Capidiplomat]

Wow, 1 million pounds per bus, just as much seating capacity, a tiny bit more hybrid till the rate it would cover not it's initial fuel efficiency cost, COMPLETE WASTE OF MONEY, why don't we just hand every bus user in London a freakin a £50000 poshe instead.

[Johnline]

alias studio!

[Minimanmaxi]

when the are produced they will look like shit withinn a coupple of months, it always happens

[jambuckerwarblast]

like he said they want one bus to be good, they will only make one to fool you into parting with some of your slave cash.

[bludz10]

haha if world ended at 2012 dec

their hard work will be nothing :D

[Threadbone]

Don't the extra staircase and two extra doors reduce the seating capacity dramatically?

[sweetypie000]

and whos going to be the conductors on the buses ? the indians and blacks of course

anyone coming to Britiain would be hard pressed to know they are in a white nation when they hit London. You can go anywhere in the world and know where you are except in multi-ethnic melting-pot Britain.

Oh, and a Brazillian pointed that out to me.

shameful imo.

[TheDrunkSpunk]

@sweetypie000 well that's not very nice.

[sweetypie000]

@TheDrunkSpunk it's the facts

[sweetypie000]

May 2010 ? think they just launched, finally. Nearly a year and a half later, got some fron this politician and has the audacity to still be running for re-election

WE DON'T WANT YOU BORIS, LONDON DOES NOT WANT YOU, YOU ARE THE ANTI-CHRIST

[VanninEllan]

The Route Master was an all British design when it came out many years ago and is well respected for the work that it did by both bus crews and passengers alike.This new bus is typically British so lets see what its appeal will be in service. I think that whilst it is seriously different people will say in many years to come that it was a good design.On a lighter note.Should there be an accident with one of these buses,let us hope that the driver wasn't upstairs collecting the fares at the time.

[TheSeanSimpson]

FINALLY ! I can now at last look out the window while climbing stairs.

[iTouchin]

@TheSeanSimpson Truly london has entered into it's golden age!

[CoN0R115]

Boris: Let's promise the plebs lots of crap and never deliver. Awhhaw haw haw hawwwwww

[billmacp]

@CoN0R115 LOL  take THAT Boris

[britishwit]

savioba1 Oh shut up, "taxpayers money" fucking arsewipe, you can't do anything about it.

[TheHollyRog]

Inspired by the routemaster , more like an insult to the routemaster , nothing like the routemaster should go back to the drawing board and come up with more friendly design , this is ugly and should be called the Brute master Not impressed at all :(

[thedevinworld]

Dose the top fly off!!!

[IamtheSpankster]

Cool, but where are the nukes stored?

[ZedBazinga]

as always, it's delayed.

we really need to get german's to build our shit for us, british people can't do shit on time.

[KnightMD]

As if the comparison with North American buses wasn't bad enough (for the latter).... They look brilliant.

[trix2705]

Aaaaaaaand.. Nothing.

[25lockie]

and to think all of those brainless dumb youths are going to spray and scratch those buses up. not to worry, we will just ask the bank of england/Rothchilds to print some more cash from they're lovely printers. Ah good old inflation, decreasing the power of the pound.

[savioba1]

Really proud to ride on one of these? I bet Boris will continue to use his chauffeur driven limousine instead of getting stuck in London's traffic. This is a load of crap, developed using taxpayers money and you mark my word, when TfL so choose they will up the fares. Wouldn't be at all surprised if passengers will be have to pay more to ride in this from the outset. Proud my arse.

[wolby2010]

looks great

[cfjackson123]

That's what it needs extra glass on the stair case for when theirs an accident.

[GAXxJUNAIDxXGA]

guy it will be in service when it 20 February they sent i think about more 2 or just 2 buses to operate to see how it goes and stuff and because it is successful it will start it service at the start of 20th February 2012  SMH do a little research please

[GAXxJUNAIDxXGA]

@GAXxJUNAIDxXGA and i know my grammar is bad loool

[2207paris]

i am from Greece and i used to live in london for 2 years only, it was soo damn beautifull city..pff Athens is amazing city very very beautifull but know i wanna go back to england..!and the buses are great:P

[2207paris]

@2207paris now*

[okokels]

flipping people should be thinking bout making d roads wider.

[PlasmaticJj]

how about bringing back the origonal bus and just make it a hybrid? that way tourist dont get disopointed when they arive to london.

[MrConnolly25]

@PlasmaticJj London's a shithole lol on top of that the prices for anything are ridiculous.By the time tourists notice the busses they'll want to be on 1 back to the airport & home.

[Kwasimojo]

@MrConnolly25 I disagree, London's a great city.

[MrConnolly25]

@Kwasimojo I suppose it's got some nice sigh seeing but thats all.I went to Wembley for the 4 nations rugby.We watched the 'locals' lol they are savages absolute lay about deadheads every single night (we stopped 3) we witnessed criminal activity ie street fighting,thefts,drug dealers (rife) Also the racial tension is almost unbearable.The further you get in the City the more ridiculous prices becom ie £20 for 1 hours parking the pubs resteraunts were shocking almost derelict heaps

[sweetypie000]

@Kwasimojo it's a shithole, I should know I was born and raised here

looks great from an outsiders point of view but inside it is dirty, sordid, expensive, dangerous, elitest and unhealthy. It is a dump.

[Kwasimojo]

@sweetypie000 I was too...guessing you lived in hackney or peckham to have such a negative opinion

[MrConnolly25]

@sweetypie000 It's an awful place,im from up north but i can honestly say as an outsider it's the most horrible shithole iv ever been to.Everything you said i agree with,the prices are laughable & the divide between rich & poor is crystal clear.

[grooverheliboy]

@MrConnolly25 ooooop north were electricity has not been found and for a good night out they race whippets and eat meatr and potatoe pies.....eeee bye gum ,,,

[grooverheliboy]

@sweetypie000 If you hate it that much then FUCK OFF AND GO LIVE SOMEWHERE THAT SUITS YOU BETTER..LIKE BRADFORD OF BIRMINGHAM YOU WONT BE MISSED I ASSURE YOU !!

[sweetypie000]

@grooverheliboy what ? move out and let the natives win ? I am unable ot move out, too much taxation to pay in this dump. Bradford ? Birmingham ? fucking hel they are as bad as london for immigrants

This is MY country. And things are going to change real soon.

};-)

[grooverheliboy]

@sweetypie000 I sense a contradictory reply one sentence you are saying how much you hate London then proudly boasting how it is your country.....a bnp supporter,a racist or a sadist !!!

[Kreuzritter1933]

@PlasmaticJj Tourists are already disappointed, because it is becoming less and less British every year.

[sweetypie000]

@Kreuzritter1933 agreed.

[ShitMovies2000]

@PlasmaticJj Exactly! I loved the old Layland Routmasters!

[nutcrakerz]

Apart from the cool design... blablablabla is all I am hearing

[freshenup]

So is this bus really coming into play or what? I'm a Londoner and still haven't seen any.

[HardcoreXxXxDude]

chuck norris's nob?

[AlanTookTheRedPill]

We really need these fuckers blocking the lanes in and around London, NOT!

[hafizazaad]

this good but the exterior design not so good, it needs to be a bit plain..

[AngelWarriorMusic]

It can be run on water this technology exists and works!!!!!!!!

[psyche8087]

A polished turd is still shit

[SuperCoolDude2014]

21st century london bus

[crzzymnn911]

What a waste of money. Instead of making it more aerodynamic an fuel efficient they give it a cosmetic makeover....

[miniigeeh]

2012 and nothing here

[DickHead69able]

@miniigeeh If you read the article you would know that it says it launches in 2012.

smh

Ignorance.

[bj26890]

@miniigeeh welcome to england!

[MultiCorz]

@miniigeeh comin out in june

[danmiddleton7893]

@miniigeeh It goes into service on monday...

[sweetypie000]

@danmiddleton7893 so soon ? lmao

[luckyyellow70]

@miniigeeh Budget cuts! Economy performing less robust than hoped.

[ROBLOXingHabbo]

Boris Johnson has no winky.

[spike200965]

This is just a bus with no door on the back, a type that most cities that live in the real world got rid off decades ago.

[GWiifanboy]

This bus looks pretty cool, I can't wait to ride on one!

[MrLordNed]

40% more fuel efficient than what? A routemaster that did bugger-all to the gallon? The most recent London bus? A tractor? Give us the facts Boris, not the spin.

[MrNeversaynever]

Only be used for the london olympics and the new world order propaganda, pack em and stack em and tax them.

[BILLYKPA1]

That is the most fucking ugliest bus I've ever seen

[mayhem380]

DONT WANT

[tavvenbizzy07]

This design looks cool ...

[ZabiFakiri]

borris johnson

[SuperDesi45]

who is the mayor of London?

[MilicaMilicaMilica94]

THESE IS WERHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY BAD

[eastarieI]

It looks good but how long before some Muslim piece of shit blows it up and everyone on it?

[jackobcooper]

So again, they don't explain engine specifics. So for all we know the only electric part of this motor is the starter... :/

[fairtester]

jjj

[fairtester]

jnjnhn

[MejoradaDj]

I say, jolly good show ol' chap ;)

[nastymonsters2]

oooooooh god i 'ate you butler....

[PakiRambo75]

i was watching this getting exited then i looked at the date it was released ! :/

[oliverbod]

@spike200965 being a non-londoner you should be grateful that London subsidies the whole country!!

[spike200965]

@oliverbod aye, in the dreams of the typical londoner, milking £billions off the rest of the uk in subsidies.

[sevvendee7]

Boris.

Superficial.

Idiots voted for him - thought he'd abolish the 'C' charge.

Thought he'd bring back Routemaster bus.

Lovable though the Routemaster was, the new buses are better for the disabled and mums with baby buggies (more mums should consider folding their buggies?).

I envisage lads leering at women's inner thighs (white panties, even?) through the rear window as the hunnies ascend/descend the stairs.

[GuillaumeLeBatard1]

People will be getting on for free like on the bendy buses

[TESCOSGRESHAM]

Bring this bus on to  the 362 KGH

[britishislandersutd]

ha ha that 521 in background bendy bus theyve been confined to the paradise history books, will this route master aswell

[itzmarcuss]

love the design!

[niznet111]

What an ugly monstrosity. Surely anything would be better than this brute of a bus?

[spike200965]

Being a Londoner mate you should be grateful for the rest of the UK subsidising the massive loss making london transport network.

[UniversalStar2000]

Being a Londoner I find it disgraceful that the bus fares are going up above inflation rate. In the old days I use to be able to afford traveling the tube but not any more as it is way to expensive. Bus fares are also heading that direction and as someone working on a minimum wage I am struggling to afford the cost of travel. It is about time we Londoner get together and demonstrate as often as possible outside the mayor's office that we can't live beyond our means.

[aeronuk1]

@UniversalStar2000 ...and it's bad for the economy because minimum wage workers can't travel far meaning companies struggle to recruit employees. The government wants people to consider taking jobs in boroughs other than their own but how can they when the tube and buses are so expensive?

[techdavey1000]

Where is the engine and how do you fix it? Hope that they don't forget to fit a large nut for a towing eye behind the number plate (what someone I know didn't have at Glasto) His coach got wrecked when it got stuck in the mud and they towed it backwards from the rear axle. Anyhow 80 passengers at 12 stones each (fairly light nowadays with all these burgers around) is 6 tons of people - not much opportunity for weight saving then? If you want to see good buses look at Gateshead.

[RichmondWandsworth]

@techdavey1000 you know too much about this. who tells you?

[aprimic]

WHEN?

[jieunyoung]

please! search daegu city tour double decker bus 대구시티투어 2층버스

[OutlawMCC]

Wow I thought the Mayors assistant would have removed his Hat

[MainlineMiller]

are 3 doors necessary?

[zzf00l]

WHERE IS IT BEING MADE AND BY WHO?

[Iivingstone]

@zzf00l Under my new regime it will be made in China like the London Taxi by good communists

[BrandonWatson19]

@zzf00l They will be made in Ballymena, Northern Ireland by Wrightbus. I live there. Most of the current London buses are made by Wrightbus.

[alanlad1]

@BrandonWatson19 yes and im told they are bastards to work for lol

[BrandonWatson19]

@alanlad1 lol. I don't know to be honest.

[BrandonWatson19]

@alanlad1 But heck, at least it's being made in the UK instead of places like China or Germany.

[alanlad1]

@BrandonWatson19 agreed

[britishislandersutd]

@BrandonWatson19 so true common sense provails, but will it last seems pc bollox takes over

[761christ]

@BrandonWatson19 Do you know where all of the Bendy Buses have gone now?

[chomilian]

yet another delay of REAL change. fresh Libyan oil, innit?!

[h8ryj]

Less CO2 = More taxes!.. Where's the REAL benefit?

[h8ryj]

Almost 2yrs and still no sign of it, What a Joke!

[THENEWJM0NEY507]

just so niggers can graffiti on them? how about build schools instead of wasting money on fat cunts who cant walk

[fakeaccount663]

@THENEWJM0NEY507

AGREED they complain about british unemployment yet half of their kids cant get a gcse IN THEIR OWN FUCKIN LANGUAGE, let alone get the grades reqiuered to get a job.

[THENEWJM0NEY507]

@fakeaccount663 im movin to switzerland as soon as saved enough fuck england it turned into a fucking shithole

[AlexRyteuBart]

@TallWhiteHuman uuu you are wrong... you are well behing with your tax of sweden, poland or germany!!

[allisokandsweet]

They will get the homeless off the street for the olympic 2012 propaganda. your all fools.

[allisokandsweet]

Are the image of the happy londoners of the so called happy people of the new world order ?

[CaronAddeRockstar]

It's no wonder fares are going up - nice to see your spending my money well Boris.

Would it not have been better to spend the money on getting more buses out, rather than just keep changing the fleet?

[AdhocHoopla]

I was hoping for a return to the more traditional appearance.

[TheDrunkSpunk]

swanky

[RICHARDROTHTVSERIES]

I love this bus.

[terencef97]

two entrances easier to dodge fares woo hoo!!

[OwlsGoRawr]

Then a few weeks later, they've been written all over and smelling of piss.

[GWiifanboy]

@OwlsGoRawr LOL you're so right! Typical city dwellers nowadays, always creating mess without a care in the world.

[colcfc123]

What a waste of money 10 million pounds for this vanity bus. Then he puts up the price of fares by an inflation busting 7% .What a Buffoon Vote for KEN

[jackjack2015]

hmm "greenest red bus"??

[darkshad109]

As long as it gees from A to B, people will be happy. The complainers will complain no matter what.

It's all a bit unnecessary though, so what if the staircase didn't have a window and seemed bleak...

Actually I do have great legs so it was pretty criminal that people couldn't view them from a window while I was climbing the stairs. Fair case.

[barnsleybornnbred]

how to people pay on?

[timbocaff86]

@barnsleybornnbred indeed

[AsianRemakes007]

i hope top gear review this bus

[AsianRemakes007]

will it be everywhere or just big cities

[HotElectonePlayer]

its a really good looking vehicle, I just wonder how long it will take before it is vandalised

[TheFyldecoast]

Bring back the TROLLEYBUSES!!!
