Now there is a progressive plan coming out of London.
London’s brand new mayor, Boris “the Eccentric” Johnson, unveiled the timeline for bringing in the new alcohol ban. The ban, starting on June 1, on the Tube (subway), buses, trams and Docklands Light Railway is one of his election pledges. According to the BBC, the ban is part of Mr Johnson’s wider strategy to tackle “anti-social behavior” and he also believes driving out so-called minor crime will be the first step before getting a “firm grip on more serious crime”.
But the Rail Maritime and Transport Union said the policy appeared “not to have been thought through very well” and could make matters worse.
Worse? As in people will drink more just for the excitement of doing something illegal?
