I'm intrigued why Z1 only prices have shot up the way they have done.

Because the system within Zone 1 is creaking at the seams?

Exactly, but as I pointed out in another message it's those that begin &
finish their journey in Z1 that are getting hit the hardest. Those that
commute in from the rest of London are faced with much smaller percentage
increases so it doesn't really make sense.

Perhaps the idea is to encourage those travelling within Z1 to use the
buses and keep more space the tube for those coming in from further out.
