    Only 2 of those oversized buggies fit into the space on London Buses or one wheelchair.

    If you have twins forget it - there is a pole in the way so you have to collapse the oversized double buggie. It also won't get through the doors.

    its the law of the jungle, survival of the fittest innit.

    if the bird pushing the whelchair is fitter than the mum pushing the pram, chuck the mum off at the next stop. obv.

    Women with babies seem to think they can do what they want when they want. Whether it is stopping disabled people getting on the bus. Or driving their massive 4WD on the school run in such a way as to intimidate other mothers walking their children to school.
    Well, I guess that the fact that I'd never park in a disabled space but frequently park in "mother and baby" slots mean my answer would be wheelchairs.

    If she doesn't want to wake the baby, she shouldn't take it on a bus

    The space wouldn't be there if wheelchair users hadn't campaigned for it.
