A raincolor is no problem for bus and is wrong. I believe l in time of emergency soseverybody should help know

Would you also support a bus in Israeli colours in support of them after the attack last week?

I wouldn't want a vehicle in support of either as it is very divisive and has nothing to do with any UK bus company

[Ronnoc]

Wouldn't the pride bus be quite controvertial as well considering many people support/oppose its cause? I understand that pretty much every other major bus company has a rainbow-themed vehicle, but does it really necessitate painting a vehicle in the rainbow colours?

Not an opinion, just a genuine question.

Yes very wrong and against our beliefs. Sometimes I see it on 97 and it hurts my heart knowing war is happening 💔rainbow is much more damaging to public

some buses can be painted for supporting Palestine also inform for donate money it is for a good project  multi color bus isn't problem why nit

Never going to happen in a million years, where would you draw the line, big can of worms, a very slippery path. Plenty of other  avenues for such things

My take on the rainbow bus is that its represents social inclusiveness  every one is free to express themselves, its against all all forms of ism's, plus its not political, that rainbow bus has encouraged folks to become  bus drivers  because NX  is an equal opportunity employer.

So apparently on bus times 2170 has gone for repaint, Where's the evidence?

I drove it to Walsall this afternoon, see attached tracking screenshot!

You don't need evidence if the user is 1503 then that is Tony Hunter himself

Gotcha I'll remember for next time

I saw 2164 at WN on Saturday and it had extensive refurbishment to the lower panels - looks like it's getting the works!

Never ceases to amaze me the levels of detail and work that goes into a bus refurb - other operators would be happy just to paint over and be done with!

New seats should be finished at Trimshop today, then it can get it's coat of Grey and go back to Coventry

Rainbow Bus is fine, i see no problem with that but, 
The Middle East War NO
i agree it should be left alone, its one of the guidelines that in Radio you do not express opinions on such things Politics is another, so on this occasion i cant fault NXWM for ignoring such things

That's fery closed mindid
