[edit] Deregulation date

I always thought deregulation took place on 1. September 1986?? Correct me if I'm wrong, but it may need checking. (RM21 00:19, 23 June 2006 (UTC))

I have done a quick Google search and I have found several independent sources that support the October date. [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6]. Road Wizard 00:32, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Deregulation occured earlier in Scotland than in England and Wales.

[edit] Bias

I see this article as being overly anti-deregulation. The only criticism listed is negative, while the regulated environment within London is praised as a "success" (taking almost as fact that regulation itself leads London buses to be successful). This is clearly one side of a debate, and needs to be balanced out if this article is to be encyclopaedic.

I propose that this article should receive an NPOV tag. Mixsynth 10:40, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
