That wouldn't practical in London, 7 high schools that I can think of in my area alone, imagine the gridlock!

In London there are specific buses with green stickers for kid apparently, not seen any so not sure how far out this scheme is going

Yes, I did feel pushed out this morning cause I've used that same bus for 6 months now and been just about the only person on it each day....bloody driver cant tell it's me for this effing mask either or I'm sure he would let me on first.

No.

You're capable of driving your own vehicle to work, the kids aren't. And also set off early enough to be on time.

Yes but I'm talking about the inner city itself . I've been to London plenty of times, I don't like it, I'm allowed to not like it . I'm not even being just a London-hater here, I grew up a 30 minute train journey from the centre of Glasgow and spent tonnes of time there in my youth... I don't like it there either. It's fine on a quiet weekday morning but weekends etc... UGH... PEOPLE everywhere.
