So anyone drinking on the Tube or bus would just be breaking the
conditions of carriage rather than breaking the law, and if caught all
that could be done would be for them to be asked to alight and/or
leave the premises.

Though with a bit of smoke and mirrors it can be made to sound a lot
heavier than that

At least they aren't mentioning The Sporting Events (Control of Alcohol)
Act 1985, which in fact only bans alcohol on football specials - despite
recently being quoted as the measure backing a much wider ban on a match
day.
