fare dodgers

Some I can't see how you can catch, even with checks on trains. I accosted a middle-class fare dodger at my local station the other day, they had followed through the barrier on my heels so I loudly informed them that fare dodging was illegal and punishable by a £1000 fine. She insisted that she had a valid ticket but it wasn't valid until after 09:30 (it was 0900), and it was no buisness of mine, to which I responded if it's valid, it would open the barrier, and if you're fare dodging you're increasing my fare and making my station seem less used than it is, leading to possible closure. Perhaps for your next trick you could take your public spirited stand to the GLA offices and do the same to Ken LIvingstone and his cronies who have raised the price of travelcards to absurd levels. I have every sympathy with fare dodgers these days since the travelling public in london is being completely and utterly shafted by sky high fares and a 3rd world service run by a bunch of thick witted management and bone idle, indifferent staff.
