I hate it when a perfectly good snarky comment is ruined by facts.

Oops. That’s what I get for failing on the details. Bring that guy over here, to show us how to grow a backbone. Thx.

If youre taking the Manchester Guardian as unvarnished fact, you arent on the right forum.
Besides, I was not talking about that story, which happened on London Uniteds route 81. I was talking about the incident on
London Generals route 24, which happened two years after that one.

I had a look at that badly-written Wikipedia article. So how does one stop the bus to pray in February 2010 and get awarded £30K in February 2009??
Again, Raulynaitis worked route 81 and for a different company. He was accused of kicking people off the bus; the operator of route 24 locked people on the bus and prayed mid-route.

I think you've got the numbers the wrong way round. Raulynaitis was a driver on route 24 and got £30,000 from the Sun for making the story up. I think the route 81 story you're thinking of is this one:
Get off my bus, I need to pray
I think I read later that he was fired.
To: WilliamTells
Actually, I think I've got the numbers the wrong way round. I give up trying to separate these two stories!
To: WilliamTells
Please read the stories again.
- Raulynaitis operated route 81 (look at the picture in your link!) and worked for London United; his incident happened in 2008 (look at the date of the story) and it was misreported that he kicked people off his bus.
- The 2010 incident was on London Generals route 24 and the passengers were reportedly locked inside the bus, mid-route.
Two different stories. No particular resolution as to the latter one, which I was originally referring to.

Yeah, see #28. I think the somali driver was the one on the route 24 bus and I’m pretty sure I saw/read that he was fired. Can’t find any link to confirm that, though.
To: Olog-hai
I am loath, as a conservative, to quote the Graniaud, but that was the best link I could find.
Have we sorted the confusion out yet?.
So it seems that one bus driver didnt do anythinng, and the one that did got fired. If the UK was as dhimmi as people here make out, the latter would have kept his job.
