Obviously it depends on the circumstances but I would certainly see them escorted from the bus way before it got to that stage. There is no justification for causing that much trouble the police have to be called to remove you from a public vehicle. I'm surprised no one on the bus thew them off, but then I don't know the circumstances.

Although I live in the (*cringe alert for some*) Upper East Side, I prefer to walk to Denmark Hill or even C'well Green to get a bus. Even then, I have to brave Walworth and Elephant, but at least I miss out on the damned road works on LL and the crush around King's. The walk takes about 35 - 40 mins, but it means I don't sit on a bus thinking 'I hate sitting on a bus'.

I am not sure whether the bus routes have had more buses put on them during the past few years when ED has seen a population growth, or at least a growth in the population that uses buses to get to and from work.

The buses on the 12 route have very poor suspension, and rattle and shake. The vehicles used on other bendy routes don't seem to be as bad.

At least the new, improved 176 vehicles don't have wooden floors, a la Mao era Shanghai trolley bus.

    • You keep insisting that you're "just stating facts", but so far, most of what you've shared isn't fact - it's just your personal opinion, framed with hostility.  Foxes aren't classified as "vermin" in the UK. They're wild animals protected under the Animal Welfare Act & the Wildlife & Countryside Act . & Yes, they do play a vital role in controlling rodent population. The more you double down on insults & misinformation, the more you discredit your own argument. It's possible to be fed up & still informed. Take the information provided to you & do something about it. BTW culling doesn't even work.
    • It’s hardly likely you know that for a fact Sue
    • I know an instance where the foxes quickly learned how to avoid such devices. 
    • I did read the comments above It's not moaning, it's stating facts. Tell you what,  you can come and clear up the near daily fox crap and see how you like dealing with it, no didn't think that would appeal to you.  Do they control rodents?  Foxes are vermin.  It's an emotive topic for some, I realise that, however the facts are foxes are a pest.
