I'm fed up with buses suddenly, mid-journey, announcing the bus will terminate before the destination displayed on the front. Camberwell seems to be the main culprit.


I understand the drivers may have completed their shifts before their final destination because of traffic problems.


However, if you catch the number 40 from Aldgate after 11pm, or on route at London Bridge etc, and it states Dulwich Plough, to announce the destination is changing puts women in particular at such a late hour in potential danger.


I was again, I couldn't put a number on the amount of times, kicked off at Camberwell last night around 12.30am despite boarding the bus supposedly for Dulwich Plough. At Camberwell I received unwelcome attention from a few well-oiled lotharios declaring their affections with can in hand (they haven't seen me first thing in the morning!)


If I board a bus with a display announcing it is terminating at Dulwich Plough I expect it to follow that route, not arbitrarily terminate beforehand.


Bus companies owe passengers a duty of care.

Write to TfL who are responsible for bus franchising in London


Write to your MP and ask them to write to the Transport Secretary as government was repsonsible for the privitisation of bus services.


More that do it the more likely things will change


Could be worse, could be Southern....

    • I wonder how much the rebranding is costing in total?  Could the money be used in a better way ? 
    • It's not fair to hold Corbyn's brother's views against him when he has never explicitly or implicitly endorsed them. And he has enough of his own terrible positions to criticise anyway.
    • Completely unacceptable. They need to fund a proper, permanent park warden presence or this sort of behaviour will get worse. Parks should be safe for all to enjoy and being assaulted and threatened by teenage gangs may put more vulnerable people off using the park altogether. If they are prepared to threaten to hurt an animal then where might it lead? Sorry Alice but we'll have to disagree on this one. This does not sound like kids just being silly; lobbing water bombs at each other is one thing, but targeting complete strangers out for a walk and minding their own business and trying to kick their dog is, in my view, no laughing matter. A group of 15 teenagers can be intimidating, not to everyone but for some it can be, especially if their behaviour is aggressive.  
    • Now I have heard everything…..not send your kid to a school because you don’t like the name - so to get my head around this, if school is outstanding, parents won’t send their child there because of name of school? Or have I not understood?
