IT's a legal requirement that the gate line be manned - I'd use the
emergency button.


Not technically correct. It's a requirement for the gates to be monitored,
which can be remotely, and the emergency plunger activated.


Well they obviously aren't being monitored remotely which a breach of
health & safety. If they were being monitored remotely why are
passengers having to vault the closed gates or force them open to get
out of a station. Sounds like a bull**** excuse by LUL.
