- A former homeless man who spent years sleeping rough has been voted London's happiest bus driver. Patrick Lawson, originally from Hackney, became homeless after spending time in jail and he used to sell the Big Issue. He was chosen by passengers who nominated him through the "Hello London" award.
I just got off the bus this gentleman was driving - what a wonderful man - respect.
Good for him, he bettered his life. Shame we there aren’t more people like him
Patrick is a fantastic role model and has such a wealth of experience, that gives hope to others going through challenging times in their lives. A true inspiration
DoubleDeckerAnton yeah
Hi Anton
Hi DOUBLE DECKER ANTON

Took less than 5 seconds to hear his voice and instantly convinced me he’s the good guy he is
Magnificent accomplishment MAN, someone to inspire us.
He's taken me to work many times. Awesome dude.
Very inspiring story, he seems genuinely grateful for a second chance at life.
A man who lives everyday like its the last 👍. Joy to watch and get a sense of how his story has changed.
This is brilliant it shows if you wanna do something you can do it such a humble bus driver
Bless Patrick man he is such a kind and down to earth guy
Lovely heart for himself and others.
Thank you BBC! I *love* stories like this one.
Inspirational guy, your positivity and love for people is truly a breath of fresh air. Definatly makes me want to be more patient and caring to people and take the time to spread some kindness into their day xxx
Well done Patrick. I hope I ride yr Bus Route one day.
I just got on his bus, he's a very positive person - it's good need more drivers like him
When the bus driver thanks you
I salute sir ... people who turn their life around from all this deserve our respect.
Great to see a bus driver so passionate about his job and happy, most drivers are miserable and don't bother to say hello.
Great story, top bloke. Good on him and good luck to him. 🙏🏻
Well done from a fellow Bus Driver, Yes it is great to be happy on this job.
Need more drivers like him!
I'm soo proud for you mate!
You have been on an incredible journey and respect to you for letting everyone know about it!
Keep it moving and keep London moving!
He should try doing routes 279, 29, or 25 and see if he’s still happy. Other than that it’s honestly warm and nice to have a happy driver, can make your day.
Good on ya Patrick 🤜🤛

They should do one on the grouchy bus driver the ones that don’t close the door on you
Nah he still gonna steal your shoes
What's next? The saddest bus driver?
Probably lol
XD
These jobs are slavery run by big bosses we're just slavering around for 10 25 pound an hour minimum wage I don't no how people can he happy doing these tesco sainsburys bus driving jobs horrible
Salaries are higher in London but thats due to cost of living but I think alot of people like the job because they like buses.
Could be something wrong with his brain, could easily have a parasite that is causing him to be happy under any circumstances. London traffic is not the best.
