Default Late-night Tube plan announced

Oh dear Mrs Redboots.....no one gets to work on the tube at 6am on a
sunday......there is a fair few people getting to work at 7am though. Oh and
a huge amount of people going home from the night before! Always makes an
interesting early shift....the new lovers...the dumped partners.....quite
amazing!!

So we disadvantage the early morning traveller getting to work WITH a
ticket, in favour of the drunk, abusive chav, without a ticket, Nurse
Nurse more drugs please.

But I wonder how many people actually *need* to get to work at, for
instance, 6.00 am on a Sunday? Sure, some do, but it is only a very
small minority of people who would be seriously inconvenienced. Besides
which, AIUI, this is a proposal, not a done deed - and a proposal means
just that - you can write and say "Oi, what about me and my ilk?" and
put the case for the status quo.
