Is it? In London on the past two weekends, travelling extensively by
Tube and bus, I noticed that there were a few more police than usual
at stations and that was about it.

Oh yes? That sounds to me like prolefeed put out by NuLab spin doctors and
Sir Ian "Robocop" Blair to con the gullible that the system can protect its
serfs, rather than just blowing away innocent Brazilian electricians, so as
to be seen to be doing something.

Conductors aren't a complete answer. They can't be expected to deal with
situations that require the presence of a trained police officer, but they
do, however, supply "eyes and ears" on the 'bus, which are now sadly
lacking, assuming that the driver is looking at the road!
