I don't see that it is LU's responsibility to get people home just

drinking until 2 am get a taxi or a night bus or move closer to the
pub, or choose a pub wihin walking distance. This problem will be
nationwide and not just in London but the whole business of the new
licencing laws seems to be ill conceived but then most of what
nu-Labour does seems to finish up as f**k-up, just look at child tax
credits.


Perhaps it's more the case that they're withdrawing what was imposed as a
temporary measure?


I don't think it fair that LU should stay open later to accomodate
late night revellers, whilst starting later in the mornings, causing
hard working Londoners grief in getting to work. It's us Londoners
that keep London going.

Or is it true that Britain is becoming a Leisure and Tourism culture
and sod the worker???
