#StopKillingBusDrivers @MayorofLondon tells @KeithPrinceAM "from Mar20-May21, 90 @TfL Workers killed by #Covid19" BUT "TfL is unable to report on the number of Taxi or Private Hire drivers who have died in service" @TootlestheTaxi @GMBLondonRegion @BWTUC london.gov.uk/questions/2021…
TfL Data released w that MQT response that reveals OVER HALF (53%, 47 of 90) @TfL Worker Deaths from #Covid19 occurred AFTER May20, i.e. AFTER 1st Wave. Weren't any 'lessons learned' @SadiqKhan @Heidi_LDN @MichaelMarmot? HT>@KevinMustafa16 @therealdojj @MalLunam @LeeOdams 
At least 5 London bus drivers have tragically died of Covid-19. Sadiq says "TfL have ensured measures have been taken to keep staff as safe as possible", but bus drivers are contractors, not TfL staff. What did he do to ensure bus companies kept passengers and drivers safe?
This looks like the natural result of TfL's failure to take responsibility for safe provision of contracted services - also implicated in the Sandilands crash - which I described in my evidence to the suspended @LondonAssembly bus and tram safety enquiry:

We need to know what TfL and its chair @MayorofLondon did to ensure bus companies were enforcing social distancing by drivers and passengers, cleaning vehicles, providing washing facilities and giving PPE to their drivers. These are TfL services, no use blaming government.
