Let me start by saying that I have not been on the waccy baccy! According to BBC North West Tonight, tomorrow at the Manchester Art Gallery there will be a performance of Bus Regulation: The Musical. Taking inspiration from Starlight Express performers will be whizzing around on roller skates telling the history of bus regulation in the Greater Manchester area from the 1960s to the present day!! I am sure more creative minds than mine on this forum would be able to come up with some good suggestions for the title of a musical or play telling the story of the current state of the London bus network.

We don't need no bus regulation, We don't need no state control, No dark cynicism in the boardroom, Hey, planner, leave those buses alone, All in all, you're just another stat on the chart.
Not too many guesses needed as to which tune this is sung to.

Thank you - my body may be failing me, but my mind's all there still, or so I kid myself. Maybe the Dominion Theatre in Tottenham Court Road will decide that their current production needs a refresh. Responding to looming rumours that the present round of bus cuts have not been enough and with financial pressures continuing to mount at TfL a new musical will open called 'We Will Shock You'. Queen songs will be reworked so Killer Queen becomes Killer Queues; Under Pressure can stay as it is and Seven Seas of Rye becomes Seven Routes Must Die after TfL confirms that in addition to more frequency reductions seven routes in the central area will be totally withdrawn.
