at all! I'm probably going to get some stick now but come on it does

happen.

If passengers also decided to take some kind of demonstration like not

using
the system for a day KEN LIVINGSTONE would only tax those people forcing
them back onto the trains.

Next time tube driver wanna strike because they demand a pay increase why
not find some other way of protesting against your EMPLOYER and not your
customer!

I like the idea of the station staff just throwing the gates open for
a day - running the service, but refusing to collect fares. Or there's
a Dutch strike, where all the passengers stay at home for a day.

Civil disobedience can be creative!



I like the idea of opening the gates. Doing so will get the customer
support - clever!
