The UK has one of the most sophisticated CCTV network in the world.
Including the buses. And the recorder in the bus almost certainly
survived. The checking of the relevant tapes will be a vast task - and
carried out by police and other security services. If a security member
(from any country) is caught boarding that bus and has survived he would
be a prime witness. If he left the bus before the incident he will be as
much a suspect as any other who did - although there's still the
possibility it was a suicide bomber. The bus is the prime choice for the
most thorough investigation since it carries less than 100 passengers. And
this is being done, including forensic investigation of all other passing
or parked vehicles hit by the explosion.
A crowded tube has thousands plus all the others waiting at the station,
etc. To the best of my knowledge there aren't cameras in every carriage.
